Home Ground: Dinosaur Hunters

on BBC Two England

Twelfth in a 13-part series of investigative programmes from the BBC regions.
Reporter David Fenton looks at the threat to Britain's fossil heritage being posed by real dinosaur hunters. A trade in dinosaur bones from the south coast of England is now fetching thousands of pounds as part of a growing international fossil market -with which museums find it difficult to compete. The programme follows a group of professional dinosaur hunters from Lyme Regis to the Tucson Show in the US, where a Tyrannosaurus Rex can fetch up to $10 million.
