 The
fossils collected by PaleoServices personnel are not destined
to sit unseen in some dusty drawer in the basement of the San Diego Natural History Museum. Instead, these significant
remains of ancient life are now available for scientific study
by professional scientists, students, and interested members
of the public.
Like books in a library, the fossils are "checked out" for
study and are often sent on loan to researchers across the
Nation. Researchers and students also visit the Museum to
study specimens as
part of larger research projects. It is noteworthy, that
without professional preservation and storage, these significant
fossils would be unavailable for study.
It is this focus on the educational
and scientific value of fossils that separates PaleoServices
from other providers of paleontological resource services. |
