Philip [usa]: Inventor of tooth mastodon
Hi steemians,
Philip, a boy from Michigan, United States who was walking the streets accidentally stepped on a strange object. The unusual shape of the object makes sense to appear.
He then took the strange object to the house and washed it in the kitchen sink. The strange object he found was 8 inches long and had 6 bumps.
"I held it in my hand, after a few minutes I realized that it looked like a tooth. It also looks like there's gum tissue, "Philip was quoted as saying
CNN, Saturday (19/04/2014).
After finding out about his findings on the Internet, Philip and his mother decided to give his findings to James Harding, a herpetologist, reptile and amphibian experts. After seeing and researching what Philip discovered, James said that the strange object was the teeth of a giant ancient mammal that had gone extinct thousands of years ago.
"It's a mastodon tooth. That's the top tooth surface that's broken on the roots, "James says through
Email.
Mastodon is an ancient mammal that resembles an elephant but is very large. These giant creatures live around Central America and are thought to have gone extinct at 10,000 to 11,000 years ago. Mastodon lives as a forest dweller in Central and North America.
