She (is she actually a she?) is the most complete T-Rex ever found, and could have very well had a little pile of presents next to the rest of her. I would assume it would actually make for a pretty interesting exhibit or show. On a semi-related note, the Indianapolis Childrens Museum has exhibits about poop from different animals. And the best part of it is that it's not listed on the map. Instead, it's just one of those lovely little 'surprises' you find when you go to the bathroom. : )
