New York AP reports the first juvenile Tyrannosaurus rex skeleton nearly 75 to 90 percent complete was found north of Belle Fourche South Dakota in 1998. The fossil named Tinker is 66 million years old, weighs about 1200 to 1500 pounds, and measures about 23 feet. It is being prepared in a Texas lab for study by a private team including rancher Ron Frithiof and paleontologist Mike Harrell. Robert Bakker calls the find exciting and a window into T rex childhood.
