🐴 #LostBones #FossilFriday 🐟🐘🦥🐪 In the summer of 2012, students from the Geology Department at Gustavus Adolphus College collected over 800 bones on the Des Moines River near Jackson, Minnesota.
This crunchy but beautiful left horse femur was part of the project and is now housed at the Jackson County Historical Society in Lakefield.

A remarkable find: Two neighbors contributed a total of 100 bison bones, discovered in separate years from the same lowland peat deposit spanning a highway in Walcott County, Minnesota. Notably, one of the collections shows possible signs of butchery.Both collections are now at the Rice County Historical Society in Faribault, Minnesota.

Megalochelys, Truly a Giant Tortoise

It’s a #lostbones #MammothMonday 🦣🦥🐴🐪🦬🐟 This mammoth specimen is not from #Minnesota but you can see it here.
Found in Miles City, Montana, this partial Columbian mammoth femur is housed at the Pipestone County Museum. It is currently not on display but a partial tusk and jaw from the same Montana doner are. More to come on those!
