TPO 13- Private collectors have been selling and buying fossils, the petrified remains of ancient organisms, ever since the eighteenth century. In recent years, however, the sale of fossils, particularly of dinosaurs and other large vertebrates, has grown into a big business. Rare and important fossils are now being sold to private ownership for millions of dollars. This is an unfortunate development for both scientists and the general public.
The reading and lecture are both about fossil fuels being owned by private collectors. The author of the reading believes that there are negative impacts of privatization of fossil fuels to scientists and the people.
First of all, the author points out important fossils are being with hold to the public because private collector has bought it. The author of the reading believes that with this trend the public will become less interested in fossil. The point is challenged by the lecturer. She says that public has more exposure to fossils and there will be many petrified remains available for purchase. Furthermore, she argues that public school and library will have the opportunity to purchase fossil and can display it in the public.
Secondly, the author contends that scientist will be also affected because they cannot have the opportunity to study the ancient remains. The article notes that fossil collectors are acquiring the rarest fossil available and scientist, museum and university cannot compete with the buying of the fossil. However, the lecturer rebuts this argument. She suggests that before identifying the value of fossil fuels scientist has the first hand in examining and identifying the the type and composition of the fossil. Moreover, she elaborates on this by mentioning that scientist has detailed examination and testing of the fossil before handing it to the private collector, hence, they have the in depth knowledge and learning in dealing with the fossil and they can pass their learning to the scientific community.
Finally, the author states that private collectors destroy important scientific evidence of the fossil. The article denotes that collectors are not knowledgeable in handling ancient remains and cannot document important details in the ancient remains. The lecturer, on the other hand, posits that without having collateral damage in some fossil, thus many ancient remains will not be discovered up to this time. She puts forth the idea that scientist can acquire many fossils even without data and location.
