Keeps incredibly rare fossil in pocket for the singular purpose of threatening children
Throws away incredibly rare fossil because it's the natural diamond version of lab grown toenails from a rude GMO frog
Perhaps it was a plaster cast replica of the real fossil itself.
Most likely. Some fossils are, although very hard, rather brittle as well.
Hardness implies brittleness. Knives aren't so hard that they never need sharpening because if they were, they would shatter when dropped
The claw is actually such a powerful visual metaphor. At the beginning of the film he's defensive and hostile to children. He's an old grumpy man. A dinosaur if you will, but through the events of the film he becomes something altogether different. He evolves, and because of those changes he doesn't need his defenses anymore. Him not being married to Dr. Sadler in the 3rd movie is such a slap in the face of his arc in Jurassic Park.
