CASPER, Wyo. (AP) - A Wyoming museum is seeking volunteers to help excavate the remains of a mammoth that may be one of the largest and most complete ever discovered in the state.
Scientists with the Tate Geological Museum at Casper College last year uncovered approximately 120 bones from a mammoth estimated to be up to 2 million years at a site outside of Douglas.
Museum Director Dave Brown said several important bones have yet to be found, including the skull, tusk, lower jaw and several leg bones. The mammoth site us under 24-hour guard and is on private land.
