A tiny dachshund named Daisy found a bone while strolling along the shore in Dunwich, England. But this was no ordinary dog bone -it was a fossilized thighbone of a mammoth! The bone, which is as big as Daisy, could be 2 million years old. Link -via Fark

    oooh lucky doggie. ^_^

    Hmm now theres a thought… They have dogs trained to sniff out everything these days. I wonder if anything in a dinosaur fossil would have enough scent for a dog to track. Might be fun if you’re an amature fossil hunter, a dog might spot something that the eye could miss.

    if you find things like that (r your dog does) do you have to hand them over for study?

    i know you d with tresure and coins like Roman and bronze age stuff, but does that cover dinosaurs etc?

    2 million years old? Wish we really had a true way to test its age.

    This will sound odd but the English channel is so littered with Mammoth bones that the fishermen have never bothered to bring them ashore as they are not thought to be note worthy.
