Students also can take home dinosaur drawings inked by Bonnan. Bonnan said his fascination with dinosaurs stems from both their size and success. The sauropods grew to be as much as 10 times larger than an elephant. Also, Bonnan points out that dinosaurs ruled the earth for 160 million years. In comparison, modern humans have been around for about 100,000 years.
Dinosaurs are an excellent vehicle to accomplish that goal.
