      I know that paleontology is the study of prehistoric life. It is good that you have a passion for something and it looks like a very interesting topic. I wish you the best of luck with this in the future

      Yes, I love it. Sometimes the more recent the better. In ancient Greece there was a species of huge bull that is now extinct. And there were massive sloths quite recently in south america.

      Paleontology is the study of prehistoric life. It’s an important and interesting subject, think of all the weird and wonderful creatures that used to roam the earth millions of years ago.

      Isn’t that studying pre-historical life looking at things like fossils and evolution? I think it must be really interesting to find out how life developed, good luck.
