To visit as many caches and dinosaur parks/museums than his two other friends (Stan & Jane) before the end of 2010. Sue wants to see the actual "Sue" at The Field Museum in Chicago, Illinois.
I represent the actual fossil of "A T.Rex named Sue" discovered by Sue Hendrickson on August 12, 1990 in Faith, South Dakota. SUE FACTS: She is the largest, most complete, best preserved T. Rex in the world, making her one of the most worlds most famous fossils ~ She was purchased by "The Field Museum" at an auction for nearly 8.4 million dollars ~ She has 200 fossilized bones and is 13 feet high from ground to hip and 42 feet from head to tail, weighing at 7 Tons ~ she has a 5 foot long skull weighing 600 pounds and her brain size is just big enough to hold a quart of milk ~ She has 58 teeth measuring from 7" to 12" ~ Sue died at approximately 28 years of age and her gender is unknown.

For tour schedules visit www.fieldmuseum.org . **The T.REX was the top predator of dinosaurs in the late Cretaceous Period 65 million years ago. They had the largest brain, keenest eyesight and smell. They could weigh as much as 7.5 tons and measure 43 feet in length and 16 feet in height from just the ground to the hip. They had serrated teeth, growing new ones every few years throughout their life and their bite force was the greatest. They are one of the largest land carnivores of all time.**
