Now THIS is the greatest show on earth!

Ladies and Gentlemen, the moment you have all been waiting for – I present the amazing Barnum Brown and his ferocious T-Rex. Barnum was born in 1873 in Kansas and was named after famous Circus owner P.T. Barnum. 1890 he stated studying Paleontology at the University of Kansas but then preferred to go into field work right away. In the 1890s he collected fossils for the American Museum of Natural History in Wyoming and Montana (Hell-Creek Formation). Then he went to Alberta and excavated at Drumheller where at the time also the Sternbergs worked.

Later he was Co-Director of the AMNH together with Henry F. Osborn and as such helped founding the Dinosaur Collection in 1910.

Barnum is to this day one of the most famous Dinosaur Hunters and has shaped the Knowledge about the Cretaceous Dinosaurs of North America. Best known is he of course for the Discovery he made at Hell Creek in 1902, a partial Skeleton of the most famous Dinosaur of all time – Tyrannosaurus Rex. And even though older specimens could later be assigned to this Dinosaur (Manospondylus, Dynamosaurus) Osborn selected T-Rex to be its valid name in 1906.

Now I don’t think I have to introduce the King of Dinosaurs in any way. For the colors I used a reconstruction at the Natural History Museum at Vienna as a model. And for the question whether T-Rex was feathered I went the middle route and gave him some fuzzy little feathers on his arms, back and neck! Hope you like it!
