  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+26I found a full squirrel skeleton once...
  • Garage81, on 10/12/2007, -6/+21he said "I care :(" because if you RTFA it mentions they don't know what to do with the skeleton, because no one seems to care. don't mod down his comment if you don't even read the article!
  • warrenfalk, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15Yeah, but feel free to mod him down for his spammy link
  • ziggystardust, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7A full skeleton was found in Vernon Nj a while back. It was about a mile from my house. The whole valley was carved out by a glacier. Growing up we would hike in and around caves finding all sorts of great artifacts. I have yet to find the grail...
  • robbh66, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Good find, although they did find nearly an entire forzen carcass a few years ago.

    Digg.

  • kenz0r, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Yeah exactly, the context of the "what" pertained to that irrelevant link.
  • warrenfalk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4"wow, this is huge! :-)"

    yep, "mammoth" even.
  • JMartin13, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6Oh wait, false alarm. It wasn't a mammoth, it was just Rosanne Barr wrapped in a bear skin rug.
  • thechad4433, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I hope they find me at the bottom of an ocean when I die.
  • blankman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3why is this such a big deal? They've found full intact carcasses before: http://www.trussel.com/prehist/news157.htm
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Poor Sid.
  • Vimes, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Hmmm. Does Exxon know about this?
    "Carbon Dioxide - We call it life"
    "Global Warming - We call it a gateway to discovery"

  • macewan, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2wow, this is huge! :-)
  • monomyth, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Complete skeletons are far from being rare in Siberia, as I remember from my childhood, of course you won't get one by shoveling sand in your backyard.
  • slamm6, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1....and the last time you saw a useful comment on Digg was when exactly ?
  • masterzman, on 10/12/2007, -4/+5i digged it, but they had found a full carcars frozen in the antartic a couple years ago.

    they made a tv special on it. i belive it was on the discovery channel called walking with mamoths. worth watching, check it out.
  • Eldoo77, on 10/12/2007, -9/+10Well I do... Digg++
  • rasterbator, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Here is an opportunity for a US company to get some positive PR points by sending a crew to move this thing to their museum. Also would help US Russian relations.
  • PlancksCnst, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1draw mammoth for momo
  • pype, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1At least he didn't die hungry...
  • crilen007, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3Keep it, so that when they become extinct, we can clone it, or put it in a museum.
  • inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Cow checks o see if there are any new mammoth games coming out... no
    Cow checks to make sure no new console or device called the mammoth is coming out.. no
    Cow hates viral marketing.
