    Hello there I’m donaven and I’ve always dreamed of being paleontologist ever since I was little and was hoping I could find a teacher on here that is willing to tutor me on paleontology hopefully someone in my area lol if interested plz reply thank you I’m in the Fresno area

    • Hi there. There may be some paleo classes offered at a nearby university or community college. But paleontology has a long standing tradition of also being accessible via informal learning and self study. There are many paleontologists who are not employed by museums or universities that just do it as a hobby and have found spectacular fossils and/or have published great scientific articles. You can check the “Locations” menu at the website http://www.myfossil.org to find a place near you to get connected.

    • There’s the madera fossil museum that may be accessible to your area! I too am originally from the Central Valley as well

    • I actually live in Fresno was hoping to actually find somebody in Fresno I can go to about being a paleontologist
