We tend to concentrate our volunteers in the two dry seasons, spring and fall. The worst things are rain-outs.
We try to reconstruct the skeletons. All the arm bones, leg bones and toe bones go back together.
We literally get volunteers ages 18 to 80. They just have to be fit enough to work outside and sit or kneel in what can be awkward positions.
Presently, we are in the bed of a lake. We are in the middle of something like Lake Alice.
A number of these specimens are the best of the species that we have ever found worldwide.
That's when we talked to the mine managers. They were very generous, and will allow for us to dig here for two or three years.
It's likely that we will find over 100 individual skeletons. No fossil site in the world has ever been like that.
