I've held lots of extremely rare and fragile fossils and I have broken quite a few. That is why they invented glue.

Triceratops. No question. But I also like Anzu and Deinocheirus.

You have put your finger on it. The most exciting part of my job is that I have access to the entire collection of 146 million objects that compose the national collection. This collection is essentially infinite and it would take a lifetime to see it all. Each year more than 10,000 specialists come to visit the collections and use them for their scientific research. The national collection is a genuine national treasure.
