*** Benjamin Franklin, who thought the bones were “extremely curious on many accounts; no living elephant having been seen in any part of America by any of the Europeans settled there, or remembered by any tradition of the Indians.” ***

Then here is something interesting.

Back about 1557 John Hawkins sailed to Africa then the Americas with a load of slaves. His fleet was captured at Vera Cruz, Mexico.
Some of the men decided to escape the Spanish and headed overland where they wer picked up by the French ship GARGARINE eleven month later off the coast of Nova Scotia. An ELEVEN month walk from Tampico, Mexico to Nova Scotia.

One of the men, David Ingram said they went overland and described many of the animals they saw, INCLUDING ELEPHANTS.

The two other survivors with David Ingram were Richard Twide and Richard Browne.

Isn’t History intersting!

as well as other giant animals for which they had no names (eventually named giant ground sloth, the moose ox, flat headed peccary, etc.)

Does the author mean Musk Ox? If there is a Moose Ox, maybe I haven't seen every Discovery Channel show on antiquity for the last 22 years.

Believe me, Rosie O’Doughnuts remains are not a challenge that anyone would spend much time on.

The brain matter was always missing. There is a very small cavity in the head area.
