Miners dig up what they believe are 2 nearly-complete mammoth skeletons near Dawson City
A crew of miners working outside Dawson City, Yukon, has unearthed a pile of fossils that appear to be the nearly-complete skeletons of two woolly mammoths.
“Throughout the day I was picking bones. Ribs, teeth, all kinds of things,” said Trey Charlie, a placer miner at the Little Flake Mine on the Indian River.
“It’s probably one of the best days I’ve had working. It’s so much fun to discover these things.”
Charlie and a co-worker were working with excavators about two weeks ago, moving mud at the mine site when they found a tusk.
“We were amazed by the size of it and how heavy it was, so we brought it back to the yard,” he said.
Another scoop with the excavator had “bones falling out of the bucket,” Charlie said. That’s when the crew stopped work to search for more.
Placer miners in central Yukon have been digging up ice age mammal skulls, bones, tusks and fossils for more than a century — essentially, since the Klondike Gold Rush.
Mammoth bones are relatively common. The large, furry elephants roamed Alaska and Yukon until about 12,000 years ago.
Historical value
The building is closely associated with the exercise of Canadian sovereignty in the Yukon and the establishment of a long-term federal presence there. Once called Government House, the Commissioner’s Residence was built and used as the official residence of the chief executive of the Yukon Territory. As such, it is closely associated with the early political affairs of the Yukon and the individuals who played a major role in them, most notably, George and Martha Black.
Target : Traveling around the world
Travel reminds those paying attention that they are not the only man in the world, that this is a huge world and that they are only a small, insignificant human in it. This is quite a leisure experience – to go to another country or another state and see large numbers of peoples living differently, and coming to understand how large the world actually is. When people who learn return home, they keep with them this perspective for the rest of their life and they benefit from this is knowledge and perspective.
Another benefit to traveling is coming to see one’s native country in a different light, in a different way. This is done through being able to compare and contrast home from a foreign location, done most always through traveling. A new perspective may be formed
