How To Hunt Dinosaurs
Some organizations offer the unique experience of
actually hunting dinosaurs! Instead of taking a vacation
at the beach or in the mountains, you can pay your way
on an actual “dig”! One organization offering ordinary
dinosaur enthusiasts the chance to help paleontologists
discover and preserve dinosaur remains is Earthwatch.
Earthwatch is a non-profit institution that sponsors
scholarly field research by finding paying volunteers to
help scientists on research expeditions around the
world. In a typical year, Earthwatch will sponsor 165
projects. Projects are divided into two- to
three-week-long teams to enable members of the public
to join in. Volunteers work side by side with the
professionals.
Earthwatch publishes a bimonthly magazine describing
work in progress and research findings. For more
