Outdoor work and the fun of discovery of new specimens. He seems to think that scientists have simply found scattered fossils and joined them together to make new animals, when in fact they could have been from a whale or something. He showed me of a finding of a huge crocodile skeleton and said if crocodiles grew large, skeletons could have been mistaken for dinosaurs. This is no where near the truth. There are no cases today of someone constructing new animals out of skeletons of several other animals.
Dinosaurs are real.
It is not easy to summarize this info. The best source I can find and have time to type because it is one paragraph comes from a recent book The Horned Dinosaurs by Peter Dodson. Horned dinosaurs have one of the best fossil records of any group of dinosaurs. There are close to four hundred specimens in museum collections around the world. There is an average of more than 30 specimens per genus.
