Her discovery was not accidental. It was much more of unexpected since fossil collectors were already in the area. They are in the dig site collecting fossils commercially. It just took another careful eye of Sue Hendrickson, a fossil hunter, to have her remains noticed. It was suposed to be a day off from sweltering heat and dust at the site since most of her companion went to town to fix their vehicle. She stayed and made use of the time hunting for fossils.

The find was huge, it was a bone of a dinosaur. Although they did not know the sex of the reptile, they named it “SUE” after the fossil hunter who discovered it.

(Lesson: Keep on doing what you know you are good at. In unexpected circumstances, your moment will come. It only takes an extra effort.)
