pikes peak

t1.jpg
more mammoths. they evidently fell into a hot spring over the years that filled up over time...the sides were too steep to get out, and there they all were when a bulldozer came to clear an 'unsightly hump ' of ground

pronghorn

t3.jpg

crazy horse, about 40 years to finish it.

t4.jpg

titanothere, that once roamed north america. if you look close at his feet, there's an alligator. they were a lot smaller then, and lived in south dakota!

that's a line up of skulls, with the now extinct short faced bear on the far right. a polar wouldn't stand a chance...


b3.jpg

that's the two types of mammoths to show size. on the left is the wooly, on the right is the colombian. all but three found so far in that pit, which is still an active dig, have been the much larger colombian-which makes an african elephant look small.

they are keeping the bones where they find them, as they find them, because they're so fragile. they aren't fossilized, but are the actual bones..
