They’re too eager to make their assessment about where this fossil fits

I question these fossil 'finds' as well.

Usually, what I find upon investigation is that when they say they found the fossil of creature 'x', they are usually talking about a piece of jawbone, or a tooth, or a hipbone. From that they 'reconstruct' the whole creature.

So, I wonder how much of the 'fossil' there is, in this case?
