Several dogs are credited with finding dinosaur fossils, but I will grant you that they were not allowed to perform the excavation.

they literally didn't let those poor dogs do their favorite part

made them watch

The difficulty was getting the dog to part with the dinosaur bone once it had dug one up.

killed by them too

Perhaps not everyone realizes that every year thousands (millions?) of people go out to shoot dinosaurs, often of the duck-billed variety.

We're having dinosaur for dinner tonight.

and often with guns of the long-ass variety

That’s a fossilized remnant, not a dinosaur.

skeleton of theseus etc
