Is there a career in collecting?

Answer 1

You can become a paleontologist (A person who excavates specimens of prehistory, such as dinosaur fossils or plant fossils) or an archaeologist (A person who excavates specimens of human history, such as ancient settlements or the technologies of ancient civilizations or even the bones of dead people) or, if you get a degree in geology and possibly geography you could become a university lecturer or be hired to hold and research geological surveys for the government. You can also get a job in oil drilling, mining and engineering companies.
