My guess is that those steaks would be on the “gamey” side.

Now if we clone it, maybe the meat would be OK.

ginger has uses other than culinary, possibly leading to the

I believe that's what we were talking about.

It didn’t sound that way to me. LOL! Wasn’t some kind of animal of this sort found frozen and the meat was cooked and served at a banquet a number of years ago? Maybe in Russia or Poland? I remember being grossed out at the though.

The sidebar story about the woman gravy-wrestling champ getting clocked with a monkey wrench is also interesting.

The Antiyuppie: I am almost certain that I will live to see a baby wooly mammoth ... and I will gladly pay to see it.

ElkgroveDan: I'll pay even more to be able to barbecue some of those steaks.

According to experts at UF, these are bones from a mammoth's leg. It seems quite a few of them have been found in Florida. These were dug up while constructing a pond.
