How did those enormous dinosaur skeletons get inside the museum? Long ago, dinosaurs ruled the Earth. Then, suddenly, they died out. For thousands of years, no one knew these giant creatures had ever existed. Then people began finding fossils -- bones and teeth and footprints that had turned to stone. Today, teams of experts work together to dig dinosaur fossils out of the ground, bone by fragile bone. Then they put the skeletons together again inside museums, to look just like the dinosaurs of millions of years ago.

Partly it comes from the straight forward excitement of unearthing buried treasure; partly from the romance of realizing that the object in your hand was alive millions of years before mankind appeared on earth; and partly, from the exultant realization that, no matter how common the fossil you have found, you are the first human being to see that particular one.
