A rare Deinonychus fossil was recently sold for $12.4 million (Credit: Christie's)

Christie's highly anticipated 20th-and 21st-century art auction on May 12, 2022, was a roaring success. Buyers from across the globe outbid each other to own the Impressionist and Modern paintings offered. However, the evening's highlight was a remarkably well-preserved fossil of a Deinonychus antirrhopus. The rare skeleton — the first of its kind ever sold at an auction — fetched an impressive $12.4 million (with fees) from an anonymous fan. It was more than double the auction house's estimated high of $6 million.

        That's so cool!!!!! Although I like Jurassic Park, they have a huge fluke in the movie. Now this was discovered after the movie, but all dinosaurs had feathers, ever trexs.
