    Much like entirely intact whale carcasses found upright encased in mud, the most curious part about the discovery of that baby mammoth is that it survived being scavenged, almost like it to was preserved by a sudden death, perhaps caused by an instant burial in dirt. One thing is for certain, the strata layers used in determining age is not always a reliable science.

      It’s entirely possible it was,it’s in an eroding bank,the top is bleached white by exposure to the elements,all mammoth remains come out of the gravels. But almost undoubtedly they knew about the tusk already,as it was obviously protruding from the ban,add to that the soil wasn’t disturbed around it..🤷‍♂️

    Last night my partner gave me a group of stone which look like asteroid or meteorite. His workmate used to work in the campsite that involve a lot of digging. They used 3 macros to dig about 18 meters down, they found a couple tusks of mammoth! Along with lots of black stones(asteroid, meteorite, tektite?) Sadly to say they didn't handle with care like these guys in the program. I personally think he sold them. My point of view is that such an amazing discovered and they didn't tell the world. Those asteroid could possibly washed out those group of Mammoth.
