I thought that they found a whole layer of nanodiamonds and no skeletons of mammoths appeared above that layer. And that the ones that did appear in that layer showed signs of pitted tusks from debris.

That's what the history channel said, at least.

[pnh102]

This is silly. Everyone knows that George W. Bush personally went back in time and savagely killed all of the mammoths personally.

It was the south Texas BBQ crowd that did it.

"were probably picked off by more inept hunters"

That's depressing...not only to be slaughtered, but to be exterminated by the inept.
