Hey, I am Dr. Alan Grant. I am a palaeontologist. Let me tell you what a paleontologist is. A palaeontologist is a scientist who studies the history of life on Earth. At first, my job was only about brushing away dust from fossil bones with tiny brushes. One time, it was a bone from a dinosaur lived 75 million years ago. I am now working in Jurassic Park and John Hammond give me $30,000 a year to work on dinosaurs. I do not work alone. Some friends help me and they work with me as well. They are Ellie Sattler, Bob Morris, Donald Gennarro, Dennis Nedry, Ian Malcolm, Ed Regis, John Arnold, Robert Muldoon, Henry Wu, and Harding. Ellie Sattler is a paleobotanist. Paleobotanists are also scientists; they study about how plants lived and grew many millions of years ago.
Wednesday was over 40°C. Ellie introduced a lawyer from the EPA. EPA is the Environmental Protection Agency. The lawyer from the EPA was Bob Morris. Bob Morris asked me about Hammond, Isla Nublar, and other things about Jurassic Park. On the same day, a man, Donald Gennaro, phoned me, he wanted me to explain to him about how dinosaurs lived. I told him about dinosaur eggs, nests, and food. Soon my phone rang again, it was Mr. Hammond. Ellie pressed the button so she could hear along our conversation. Hammond said that he was the owner of Isla Nublar and he claimed that Isla Nublar was interesting. Dr. Ellie Sattler and I must go to the island and we will be paid $600,000 by Hammond for merely a three-day work there.
