The Aathal Dinosaur Museum's curator was on Tuesday helping complete perhaps the world's biggest construction kit -- reassembling a 67-million-year-old T-Rex dubbed Trinity.
Trinity was sent to Zurich from Arizona in the United States in nine giant crates.
The 3.9-metre (12.8-foot) skeleton has been mounted on a red carpet and under crystal chandeliers in a Zurich concert hall, where it will be on public display before going under the hammer on April 18.
