Have you seen specials on tv about dinosaurs?  Have you watched scenes about hunting for dinosaur fossils?  Well, it looks sort of easy when you see it in a movie or television.  But the real scientists who search for dinosaur fossils spend a lot of time looking and not too much finding.  And when they do find the bones, they have to be very careful and make sure they are doing a good job.  See what is involved from looking for the bones to sorting them out to reconstructing the dinosaur itself!
