These are the bones of a partial gomphothere found in central Nevada by the college in 1987. The fossils date to 10 million years ago, when Nevada was a savanna. Fossil plants preserved with the remains include oaks, palms, and water chestnuts. The bones are displayed as they were found.
The animal died in a stream. Chew marks indicate that the carcass was scavenged. A flood then washed the remains downstream, pushing them against a sand bar in a tangle of leaves and wood. The turbulent waters crushed the skull and dislodged the upper tusks and washed them away (what you see is a reconstruction). Teeth and parts of the skull survived. Later lake sediments buried the sand bar and the fossils, preserving for ten million years.

Thank you very much for your continued interest and support of my life's w3rk Mr. B. Cunningham! You're a true friend, patron, and inspiration.
Prosper has a nasty habit of chewing on the sink, the door hinges, knives--anything metal he can get his teeth around. I've been trying to tempt him with a nylon dog bone. I figure it's chicken flavoured and made for chewing, unlike everything he wants to chew, which tend to be metal flavoured and not made for chewing. This was the one time he obliged me.
Dinosaur Bones - The Legion - April 18th, 2009
Toronto's most hyped band did what they do best when they played The Legion on Saturday night.
Each year I just have to take a shot of this old car in the dry run.
The grandkids call them car bones.
I'm guessing these are deer bones. The upstairs neighbors's dog dragged them out of the trees at the far end of the field. I know a deer died over there a couple of years ago, and coyotes dragged the carcass into the trees to eat it.
They found this bone out hiking. We don't know what kind it is, but they automatically assume it belonged to a dinosaur!
