The fossil record has been surprisingly helpful in identifying dinosaur species, and they are represented by thousands of specimens with some having been studied in great detail. Long before humans walked the earth, there was another prehistoric animal that dominated it. It was called a dinosaur. The Dinosaur Cove project attracted volunteers from all walks of life. Many were local university students, lured by Tom Rich’s line, “We can’t pay you, but we can feed you”. Michelle Hird (née Colwell), Natalie Schroder and Helen Wilson (née Brown) were among this high-spirited group. They recall that the food was far from edible in those early years, with no refrigeration, a tight budget and few chefs in camp. Michelle remembers ‘recycled’ rice pudding with chunks of tuna floating in it! Therefore, Tom’s promise of a cubic metre of chocolate to the first person to find a mammal bone must have been an irresistible incentive.

Dinosaurs are extinct, but they are still popular among children. They can be seen in books, movies, and TV shows. Few people think about the prehistoric reptiles that roam the earth for millions of years ago. They used to live on every continent but now they only exist in museums and zoos. Down at the cliff face, the camaraderie and one-upmanship saw the girls giving the guys as good as they got. Bill Hopkins notes “All the girls and women seemed to love working with the noisy tools” then adds cheekily, “all the boys and men loved watching them do it”. It wasn’t uncommon to get covered in mud from the water-fed drills, making a dip in Lake Copco at high tide an inviting prospect. Sedman, Gina (20 January 2022).

As so often happens in life, a chain of random events brought Tom and Pat on a collision course with Dinosaur Cove. The first of these was their migration to Australia from the USA in 1973, so that Pat could complete her post-doctoral Fullbright Fellowship at Monash University in Melbourne. Tom soon found employment as Curator of Palaeontology at the Museum Victoria, where he attracted the attention of a group of dinosaur enthusiasts called ‘Friends of The Museum of Victoria’. The ‘Friends’ were hell-bent on holding a dinosaur dig and eventually convinced Tom to take them to an enticing deposit on the Otway Coast, an hour and a half’s drive west of Melbourne.Dinosaur Cove", Victorian Resources Online, Department of Primary Industries, 31 December 2009, archived from the original on 4 April 2011 , retrieved 2011-02-21 ROAR with excitement as you navigate through 18 thrilling holes filled with jaw-dropping obstacles and exciting challenges. Dinosaur is a phenomenal representation of prehistoric times. It has always fascinated people of all ages. It was not just an animal but it was an entire world. The most interesting aspect of the dinosaur is that it predates the appearance of mammals by about 70 million years, so it had no natural enemies. Dinosaurs are not like any other animal on Earth. They lived millions of years ago, which means they were here before people, insects, and even flowers. Dinosaurs were big and their bodies were different from any other animal alive today. They had many sharp teeth and long claws on their hands and feet to protect themselves from enemies or to hunt for their next meal.

Dinosaurs are often seen as prehistoric creatures, but they are actually still alive in our sense of them! They have been around for over 200 million years and have evolved through many changes. As for what is a “dinosaur” many people say that any creature that has lived for more than 65 million years ago qualifies as one, this would mean that birds, fish, mammals are all included in this classification.With these fossils, we have learned about dinosaur anatomy and behavior and they have captured the public imagination like no other extinct creatures, capturing their interest with many active research areas.

Kids love dinosaurs because they are enormous and fascinating creatures. They like to hear stories about their history and imagine what it would be like if they were living today. Dinosaurs fascinate kids because they seem so far away from them; it’s hard to imagine what these animals might have looked or sounded like or how big or small they were when compared with other animals that exist today. Dinosaurs are a group of animals that lived on Earth over 66 million years ago. They became extinct about 66 million years ago, but we still know a lot about them today because their fossils were very well preserved in the ground. No sooner had Tom Rich committed to a field trip to Dinosaur Cove, he began to have grave reservations. This article needs additional citations for verification.
