I wouldn't say most, but some do.

you know, to be a real palaeontologist you would have to go to college for about 12 years. if you look at the books, most of the people in it, about 7 in both the first and the second, have their doctorates. theirs Dr. Malcolm of theoretical mathematics, Dr. Grant of palaeontological studies, Dr. Sattler of Paleobotanical studies, Dr. Wu of Biogenetics, Dr. Levine of palaeontological studies, Dr. Thorne of mechanical engineering, and Dr. Harding of palaeontological and preditorial behavior. so as you can see, a doctorates may be good to have if you want anything to do with dinosaurs. personally im actually going for my doctorates in biogenetics with minors in palaeontological studies, theoretical mathematics, and psychology. that is unless my bussiness takes off, in which case i may have to postpone college for a while.
