The bone measured about 1.2-metres-long and weighed around 22kg. https://au.news.yahoo.com/diver-incredible-100000-year-old-mammoth-leg-river-074010693.html https://www.ndtv.com/offbeat/once-in-a-lifetime-discovery-florida-scuba-divers-find-ice-age-mammoth-fossil-2427930 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
