Reports indicate that dog scientist Dr. Milo Barker may have ulterior motives for pursuing a career in the study of ancient life.
“He’s been studying the Mesozoic Era for 82 years now, he’s an expert in the field,” Barker’s research partner Yara Mejia told reporters as Barker employed his self-developed, experimental method of gnawing on a dinosaur bone specimen. “But I just got a feeling his heart is not into advancing the knowledge about the Mesozoic Era field of study.”
“Despite his age, he is always very active in the excavation process,” stated Mejia as Barker excitedly dug many holes seemingly out of pure euphoric love of the act of digging holes. “He may not be the most precise excavator, but man, you’ve got to admire his passion.”
“He has pushed forward some groundbreaking papers for the field, but I don’t know, there is something off about his motivations. Drop it! Drop it!” continued Mejia after chasing Barker around the lab to get him to let go of the brachiosaurus femur in his mouth. “But, although his methods are a little unorthodox, there is no denying he is a damn good scientist.”
At press time, the termite logger is actually an extremely great professional.
