NY judge: Feds can seize disputed dinosaur skeleton sold through Dallas-based Heritage Auctions... Heritage Auctions auctioned off the nearly complete Tyrannosaurus bataar in New York City on May 20. An unnamed buyer submitted the winning bid of $1,052,500... “The skeletal remains are of tremendous cultural and historic significance to the people of Mongolia, and provide a connection to the country’s prehistoric past,” U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara said in a news release. “When the skeleton was allegedly looted, a piece of the country’s natural history was stolen with it, and we look forward to returning it to its rightful place.”

Senh: If someone took it from Mongolia illegally, then the U.S. should return it.
