How many kids want to be paleontologists when they grow up? Or can even pronounce the word? This little one wants to be a paleontologist because paleontologists "study bones." And then he goes into a spiel about paleontologists finding a "really big bone". No bones about it, this video is adorable! Watch it below. Good luck future paleontologist!
