"How To Keep Dinosaurs"
By Robert Mash OC
Hollywood
and the popular press would have us believe that all dinosaurs are gigantic,
hostile and untameable. In fact, there are many species that make charming and
even useful companions. From Compsognathus (mild-mannered and affectionate -
once it has learnt to recognize its owner) to Deinonychus (will not eat dog food
- dogs are another matter) this book advises you which dinosaur is right for you
and your home, from the city apartment dweller looking for a lap pet, to the
country estate owner looking to tighten up on security. This book is packed with
the sort of information keen dinosaur keepers crave - from feeding and housing
to curing common ailments, breeding and showing your animal. It will even tell
you where you can purchase your new pet. The author, a zoologist with extensive
experience of dinosaurs, has provided a timely and much-needed source book for
all those who keep dinosaurs and for the huge numbers who are contemplating
getting one. It is as essential to every dinosaur keeper as a stout shovel and a
tranquilizer rifle.
