This material addresses the question of the consequences of selling fossils to private collectors. The reading passage suggests that it does more harm than good. The lecturer, on the other hand, refutes this information by stating that generally private collectors' have a positive impact.
To begin with, the reading passage highlights that private persons prevent fossils from being exposed to the public since, instead of museums, they are kept in private collections. Meanwhile, the professor casts doubt on this and argues that commercial fossil trade makes fossils more available to public inasmuch it involves a lot of people and institutions in the process of search of that precious remains. This, in turn, increases the chances of public to get access to the items under consideration.
Additionally, the article posits that rich private collectors outcompete public subjects from the ownership of fossils, a fact that limits their availability for scientists. However, the professor advocates a different approach and provides the following details. Namely, she mentions that scholars are the first people who examine the items in any case since even private collectors need their expertise to identify the fossils. As a result, the fossils become familiar to the scientific community.
Finally, the author invites attention to the fact that private collectors are unaware of the peculiarities of fossils so that they can harm them while excavating. Furthermore, they can destroy important data, for example, relating to the location or surroundings of the fossil. This goes counter to the information in the listening passage, according to which, without commercial elements many fossils will remain undiscovered which is obviously worse.
