The questions about Louis's baby Trex run even deeper than its appearance.
和路易斯的寶貝龍有關的問題比表象更有深度。
With such limited fossils, some scientists have actually questioned whether the bones might belong to a different species of dinosaur entirely, something like a Trex, but much smaller.
根據這些有限的化石，一些科學家開始質疑這些骨頭是否屬于完全不同種類的恐龍，和寶貝龍接近，但是更小的龍。
Your presenting of a mounted skeleton of this baby Trex, and this is the first baby Trex that's been found and has been put on display.
你呈現的是寶貝龍組合好的骨架，這個是被發現的第一個恐龍，已經開始展覽。
How can you be sure that it is indeed a Trex and it's a baby, because bones change as juveniles turn into adults.
你怎么確定這就一定是Trex，這個是寶貝龍，因為從少年到成年，龍的骨頭會發生變化。
You can read the characteristics of the bone tissue.
你可以通過骨頭的組織來判斷。
And that can tell you if the animal is a fullgrown individual or if it's a baby, a very young individual.
你可以判別出動物是發育完全的個體還是只是一個嬰兒，非常年幼的個體。
So we know that. Perhaps in the future discoveries may prove that there was another species of tyrannosaur that essentially lived together with Trex, and then maybe this is a baby of that particular species.
所以我們知道那是什么。也許未來發現可能會證明那是另外一種霸王龍，本質上是和Trex住在一起的，或者是那種特殊物種的后代。
But at the moment, with the information that we have, it seems that the most reasonable hypothesis is to say this one represents a baby of a tyrannosaur's racks.
但是當下，根據我們現有的信息，認為它是霸王龍的后代是最合理的假設。
I think that you're quite brave to put something like a baby Trex in this exhibition as a mounted skeleton because there is nothing to compare it with.
我認為你把寶貝龍的骨架組合好拿出來展覽很有勇氣，因為沒有可以與之比較的東西。
It's our responsibility to make sure that people understand that things are not written in stone. And our scientific conclusions change as we gather more evidence.
確保讓人們理解事情不是一成不變的，這是我們的義務。當證據越豐富，我們的科學結論就會改變。
Back in New Jersey, the Trexes are nearly complete. And Louis has come to inspect them.
回到新澤西，寶貝龍的骨骼組合已經接近完成。路易斯來到這里視察。
This is phenomenal, you know, it's awesome. This is fantastic, really fantastic.
這是非凡的，你知道，這很了不起。這也是神奇的，確實神奇。
Everything you thought it would be? Better, better. Good.
你認為所有的事會怎么樣？越來越好。很好。
It's hard to describe but I feel that it's very dynamic, you know.
很難描述我的感受，你知道的，它會有變化。
We brought the right hand and foot over the centerline court, (Yeah, I can see that.) And there's a lot of, quite a bit of movement.
我們把右手和右腳放在場地的中心線上，（是的，你能看到。）有很多，相當多的移動。
I'm glad you like that, Luis. I think it's phenomenal.
很高興你喜歡這個，路易斯。我認為這是顯著的。
