      A Dinosaur Skeleton Reaches A Record Price In France

      The largest dinosaur skeleton ever auctioned in France, measuring 22 meters long, sells on November 16, 2024, in the Paris region, for more than six million euros. The anonymous buyer is a collector who states he wants to entrust the skeleton of an apatosaurus, a giant herbivore, to a museum, indicate the Collin du Bocage and Barbarossa houses. ''This auction is one of the highest made for a dinosaur skeleton in France,'' says Olivier Collin du Bocage. Made up of 75 to 80% of the original bones, the imposing specimen is the largest dinosaur ever put up for auction in France. The skeleton of the herbivorous giant, which weighs around twenty tonnes during its lifetime and probably reaches the age of 45, spends the summer in the orangery of the castle of Dampierre-en-Yvelines, around fifty kilometers to the southwest of Paris, where the sale takes place.
