41. THE WORLD’S GREATEST FOSSIL HUNTER
Dinosaurs and other ancient animals left fossils. Do you think only famous scientists discover them?
Actually, a 12-year-old British girl found many important fossils! Mary Anning liked collecting fossils along
the beach. In 1811, she and her brother found a strange skull. It was on the side of a cliff. The skull was over
one meter long! It looked different from other animals. In 1812, there was a big storm. Rocks fell from the
cliffs by the sea. Anning found the animal’s whole skeleton after the storm. It lived in the sea long ago. Over
the years, Anning found more bones from other ancient animals. Scientists studied these bones. We can see
some of them in museums today. Anning helped people learn about the world long ago. Now she is called the
world’s greatest fossil hunter.
