Abstract

The Isle of Wight is world famous for its Lower Cretaceous dinosaurs, collecting and keeping these dinosaurs on the Island comes with challenges. This short paper presents four case studies where the museum has worked with landowners, collectors and agencies to bring extraordinary finds into local public ownership, and therefore available for scientific study. Each of the selected case studies highlights the importance of due diligence and the sensitivities of working together for the public benefit. It emphasises the importance of funding acquisitions and a positive viewpoint by museum professionals towards the public, and towards commercial palaeontology.
在被侵蚀的海岸收集恐龙——来自怀特岛的案例研究
怀特岛以其下白垩纪恐龙而闻名于世,在岛上收集和保存这些恐龙是一项挑战。这篇短文介绍了博物馆与土地所有者、收藏家和代理机构合作的四个案例研究,将非凡的发现纳入当地公共所有,从而可供科学研究。每个选定的案例研究都强调了尽职调查的重要性以及为公众利益而共同努力的敏感性。它强调了资助收购的重要性,以及博物馆专业人员对公众和商业古生物学的积极看法。
