A composite skeleton of Tyrannosaurus rex sold Tuesday at auction in Switzerland for nearly 5.6 million euros. The skeleton, about 3.9 meters high and 11.6 meters long, is actually an assemblage of bones from three different T-Rex found between 2008 and 2013 in Montana and Wyoming, in the northwest of the United States.

The public was able to admire the skeleton for more than two weeks in Zurich. More than 30,000 visitors came to admire Trinity, many of them children.
