🦖 Dinos

Why scientists know so much about dinosaurs?

Scientists called paleontologists study fossils, which are the remains of ancient plants and animals preserved in rocks. By carefully digging up and examining these fossils, they can learn about dinosaur bones, teeth, footprints, and even what they ate.

⭐ Bonus fact: The word 'fossil' comes from a Latin word meaning 'to obtain by digging.'
