Fossil Collecting Paragraph
Fossil collecting (some times, in a non-scientific sense, fossil hunting) is the collection of fossils for scientific study, hobby, or profit.
Fossil collecting, as practiced by amateurs, is the predecessor of modern paleontology and many still collect fossils and study fossils as amateurs.
Professionals and amateurs alike collect fossils for their scientific value.
A commercial trade in fossils has also long existed, with some of this being practised illegally.
