Peck’s Rex

Museum of the Rockies Bozeman, MT | 2015

We mounted a fossil Tyrannosaurus rex “Peck’s Rex” for the Museum of the Rockies in Bozeman, Montana. We’ve mounted many cast and fossil T. rex specimens, but this our first adult fossil T. rex. It’s a specimen that has some unique details: Peck’s Rex has its fossil furcula (wishbone), 3rd metacarpal (which is often missing), and a great number of gastral ribs or gastralia.
