"They have been found..."


Now throw them back and wash your hands.

*eeeeeew*

Hard crap to swallow.

Paleontologists get excited over the strangest things. *reminds self to never shake hands with one*

Here's a somewhat related mostly irrelevant croc story.

Croc owner must have wrapped em in bacon.....

Well, sure. That's Keith, right?

Three separate people found this and sent it in!
(Jeff, you slackin' off today?)

Someone sent me some pretty gruesome pictures of a golfer who lost an arm to a gator of some sort.

Not the same story, though.

And I know where they found the coprolite. Calvert Cliffs State Park in MD.

When I was a kid, we would take field trips there and hunt for fossilized sharks' and rays' teeth. They would let you take them home, back then. Don't know if that's still the case. And they were everywhere. You'd come home with a baby-jar full, easily (this was in the days before zip-locks).
