TEAMWORK
is the secret to a successful
dinosaur dig! Expedition teams are made up of paleontologists, lab technicians, students, and volunteers who all have to work together well. Dinosaur excavations are usually in remote places—far away from cities—so paleontologists need to camp near the dig. Bringing all the equipment for the dig is important, but it’s just as important to have all the camping and cooking gear needed to live on the campsite. O ! en, paleontologists spend over a month camping while digging up a dinosaur!
