Paleontologists and their pets

Since ancient times, people have found fossilized bones in the ground and sinks of strange, unequal creatures. For thousands of years they did not understand to whom these remnants belong, and tried to explain their nature in a variety of ways: the existence of giants and monsters, magic and the World Flood. Gradually, scientists began to guess that the remnants were hired by some animals, and finally could say: long before the appearance of people, bizarre animals, fish, lizards lived, from which fossils remained. This book tells about these first paleontology, their amazing discoveries and bold hypotheses. In it, you will meet the ingenious Georges Cuvier and his mastodont, knowledgeable Charles Darwin and his toxodon, brave Mary Anning and her ichthyosaurus, writer and paleontologist Ivan Efremov and his titanophone and many others.
