How did dinosaurs live on the territory of Ukraine? Why did scientists boil over pterodactyls and who became the prototype of Indiana Jones? Paleontologist Vadim Yanenko knows the answers to these questions. In his book he not only explains how to distinguish archaeologist from palaeontologist by eye, but also teaches how to taste and sound of bones to identify the age of skam’yanilosti in his city.

Vidtere now you for ever smell’yatayete, that palaeontology is not only about dinosaurs, and about the ancient forms of life in general — vegetation and animals. And also you will learn what to do, if you have found unintelligible cysts in your garden and how to become a skam’yanilisty after death.

The palaeontologist tells us where the idea that a meteorite destroyed all the dinosaurs came from, reminisces about the shaped-toothed «kotiks» and hairy rhinoceroses, explains who could be the prototype of the unicorn and describes the working graph of the father of palaeontology. At the same time, he shares stories about the researchers who liked to take the work in the form of the head of a skywalker home, those who from the skeletons of real ancient animals put together the skeletons of monsters and sold to museums and monarchs.
