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

The article claims that the selling of precious, valuable and rare fossils to wealthy private collectors has led to an unfortunate development not only for the scientists, but also the ordinary public. The author of the passage provides three reasons of support. However, the professor, even if acknowlwdging that this sort of private selling has negative consequences, explains that the article exaggerated the issue. She thinks that the selling of fossils to private ownership hasmore merits that outweighs it's drawbacks and refutres each of the author's reason.

First. the passge posits that people suffers much as they don't get access to the private collection of fossils, resulting in the decline of public interest in fossils. the professor contardicts the point by stating that actually private collection offers great exposure of fossils to the public. She explains that now low livinng institutions can perchase these fossils from private collectors and are become able to exhibit them to the viwers.

Scond, the article explains that due the desire of wealthy fossil buyers to possess the rare valuable fosssils, the scientists are loosing access to them and thereby missing out the opportunity of discovering the extinct life forms. But the professor contends that it is not realistic. private collection of fossils allows to discover many undiscovered ones which universities were unable to discover due to rthe scarcity of money.

Finally, the passage claims that commercial collectors often cause damage of fossils thereby destroying scientific evidence associated with them. The professor avers that this collection passed out through rigorous examination, identification by the scienctific experts. So No evidence are get misssed out.
