Description

Dinosaur is a phenomenal representation of prehistoric times. It has always fascinated people of all ages. It was not just an animal but it was an entire world. The most interesting aspect of the dinosaur is that it predates the appearance of mammals by about 70 million years, so it had no natural enemies.

This would be no ordinary dig. The Dinosaur Cove deposit was at the base of a steep, slippery, 90m-cliff, subject to huge tides and extreme weather. Tom’s proposal to have amateurs tunnelling into a vertical cliff with hydraulic drills was met with reactions of horror, but with stubborn persistence, he was able to wade through the mountain of red tape needed to appease the authorities and gather the resources required. With the invaluable support of Bill Loads, manager of Victorian operations for Atlas Copco, who provided the drilling equipment, the stage was set for the commencement of a project that would provide a window into the world of polar dinosaurs. Digging begins Dinosaurs are not like any other animal on Earth. They lived millions of years ago, which means they were here before people, insects, and even flowers. Dinosaurs were big and their bodies were different from any other animal alive today. They had many sharp teeth and long claws on their hands and feet to protect themselves from enemies or to hunt for their next meal. Dinosaurs are reptiles that became extinct more than 65 million years ago. They were the dominant terrestrial animals for over 150 million years and still hold a prominent place in the study of palaeontology and in popular culture. The richest find of petrified dinosaur bones is confined to narrow thin (up to 0.3 m) layers, most likely ancient stream beds serving as repositories of the bones of smaller animals.Dinosaur Cove", Victorian Resources Online, Department of Primary Industries, 31 December 2009, archived from the original on 4 April 2011 , retrieved 2011-02-21

Kids love dinosaurs because they are enormous and fascinating creatures. They like to hear stories about their history and imagine what it would be like if they were living today. Dinosaurs fascinate kids because they seem so far away from them; it’s hard to imagine what these animals might have looked or sounded like or how big or small they were when compared with other animals that exist today.

Long before humans walked the earth, there was another prehistoric animal that dominated it. It was called a dinosaur. Treese, Tyler (28 January 2022).

The Dinosaur Cove project attracted volunteers from all walks of life. Many were local university students, lured by Tom Rich’s line, “We can’t pay you, but we can feed you”. Michelle Hird (née Colwell), Natalie Schroder and Helen Wilson (née Brown) were among this high-spirited group. They recall that the food was far from edible in those early years, with no refrigeration, a tight budget and few chefs in camp. Michelle remembers ‘recycled’ rice pudding with chunks of tuna floating in it! Therefore, Tom’s promise of a cubic metre of chocolate to the first person to find a mammal bone must have been an irresistible incentive.
