Solve : Fla. teen stumbles upon Mammoth tooth?

Answer»

SEMINOLE, Fla. - A 16-year-old high school student stumbled upon what archaeologists say could be the biggest fossil find in Pinellas County in nearly a century. A shiny black rock caught Sierra Sarti-Sweeney's eye as she was taking pictures last month in Boca CIEGA Millennium Park.

"I LOOKED down and saw a huge bone that could not be a rock. Most of it was exposed, but we dug and found that it was bigger and bigger. I thought, 'Oh my gosh, what are these? Are they people bones?'" she said.

The [highlight]jaw and tooth weigh 65 pounds and are about a yard long[/highlight]. Sarti-Sweeney took the bones home and, after some online research with her older brother, determined the football-sized rock was actually the tooth of a long-extinct mammoth.

*Scientist are considering logging the find under a new species code:
the Rosie O'DonneLLith !*
