Boy Discovers Perfectly Preserved Woolly Mammoth


This photo (above) shows the carcass of a "perfectly preserved" Woolly Mammoth discovered last month by an 11-year-old Russian boy. Scientists say the woolly beast was probably killed by an ice-age human about 30,000 years ago. The last time such a well-preserved mammoth was found in Russia was in 1901.

A excerpt from Yahoo News:

Alexei Tikhonov of the St. Petersburg Zoology Institute told the Associated Press that the mammoth found in Siberia—one of the best preserved carcasses ever found—could have been "possibly" killed by a human or a rival mammoth.

The remarkable discovery was made last month by an 11-year-old Russian boy. While exploring the area around his home, the youngster uncovered a tusk, bones, fur and flesh of a creature that is estimated to be 30,000 years old, the Daily Mail reports.

The boy, Yevgeny Salinder, according to ABC News, found the remains in permafrost in Taymyr, located in Russia's northernmost region.

The mammoth is informally named Zhenya, after the boy's nickname. Its official name is the Sopkarginsky mammoth, according to ABC News.

The 16-year-old mammoth was 6 feet 6 inches tall and weighed about 1,100 pounds, Tikhonov told AP. While the mammoth is nearly intact, its DNA is damaged and "hardly" suitable for cloning.

    And another thing, how the fuck is this relevant to Bigfoot? It seems everyday, half of whats posted is some bullshit, poorly written guest article, while the other half is a random animal. Nice job there Shawn.

    Whats next, a video of Shawn pleasuring himself onto a picture of Merchant and Dyer? But seeing as how most bleebers are butt pirates, I cant imagine too much negative backlash.

    5. A proud butt pirate here. I was going to agree about this having nothing to do with Bigfoot. But it does due to the where is all the dead body's argument.
      Then i read the rest of the posters dribble and was glad i could disagree with them entirely.

    1. Well, we have some teeth and a jawbone of a really big pleistocene era primate. There is debate over whether or not it was bipedal, but we do know nature has before created something akin to what people say bigfoot looks like.

    2. 3:28 Just a question, how many archaeological digs or expeditions have you heard of happening in say Washington State, for the sole purpose of finding ancestral remains of early humans? And have you seen the records? Hmm, let me think or maybe you need to google this. Or better still go to a Chinese Medicine shop and find another Gigantopithecus tooth!

    5. Its easy to lose, misidentify or change evidence that may not suit your current scientific or religious views.
      I dont want to say the word conspiracy...
      It happened with the Egyptian god Min, and with a lot of the ancient Greek stories, it probably happened a lot more than we realize.
