        The huge T­rex (霸王龙) bends over a large triceratops (三角龙) lying on his side below. With its mouth open wide, the T­rex looks ready to kill the triceratops with a final bite to the triceratops's neck. The display will be found at the National Museum of Natural History.

        The museum has sought a huge T­rex skeleton (骨架) for many years. Before, it used a model of one. But museum director Kirk Johnson says that was never good enough. "It's been kind of deeply embarrassing to be the national museum and NOT have a T­rex," he said. The T­rex display is now the centerpiece of the museum's newest show, which will be available to the public on July 15.

        That T­rex, named Sue, was found in South Dakota. Officials at the museum built a special area for the skeleton. It includes a gift store of all things related to Sue. Sue even has her own Twitter account and a media presentation of her life story.

        In modern times, movies like "Jurassic Park (侏罗纪公园)" have helped grow dinosaur interest for a new generation of young fans. But such movies describe the T­rexes as mostly huge, stupid and dangerous animals, which are true threat in the fighting: quick, intelligent and aggressive hunters in groups.
