<p>The non-profit organisation Friends of the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences said in a statement that it acquired the fossilised animals with private funds.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>The skeletons will be gifted to the Raleigh museum’s vertebrate palaeontology collection.</p>
<p>The Tyrannosaurus rex and Triceratops horridus known as the duelling dinosaurs were buried together 67 million years ago.</p>
<p>Their fossils were discovered on a Montana hillside and remain entombed within the sediment where they were found.</p>
<p>The non-profit said the distinct preservation will give museum palaeontologists an unprecedented opportunity for research and education.</p>
<p>The skeletons are worth millions of dollars and were the subject of a court battle over who owned them after their discovery in 2006.</p>
<p>In June, a US appeals court ruled the fossils belong to the owners of the land’s surface rights, not the owners of the mineral rights.</p>
