Update on the Chelsea Mammoth

Update on the Chelsea Mammoth
It was not Woolly Mammoth as we thought it was. It was a hybid mammoth, a mix of 2 species of Columbian and Woolly mammoths, called Jeffersonian Mammoth.
The mammoth will be moving to University of Michigan museum of Natural History this week for cleaning and study.
I am hoping to see it someday if they decide to display the mammoth.

Big Discovery In Chelsea, Michigan

A big Discovery in Michigan...
A over 10,000 years old nearly complete Woolly Mammoth bones have been found Thursday, Oct 1st  in my town of Chelsea Michigan in a soy field by a farmer who own the land where the bones were. They thought one of the bone were a bend fence post but it turn out to be a rib bone sticking out in mud.
Paleontology Professor of University of Michigan and his team of paleontology students found more bones and the biggest piece were the skull and the tusks attach to the skull. It was amazing find right here in Chelsea. So close to my home. I am really in awe of the findings.
I love paleontology, since I was little. Museums of Natural History are my favorite museums. I always enjoyed the exhibits of the histories of Nature. I never got bored with Natural History and Paleontology.

Hello October

Bye September.
I can't wait for tonight show, Sleepy Hollow. I already put my Halloween decorations up. I can't wait for Halloween.
I am nervous of the Hurricane Joaquin. Cindy, Doug and Alexa in Virginia. I am nervous for them. I am sure they will be ok since they are in Southwest VA but still they live near the lake.
I miss them. I miss SML. I miss being in Virginia. Can't wait to be in Virginia soon.
