Unexpected discovery: Mammoth bones found in the Danube basin in Bulgaria

A local resident near the Bulgarian village of Rjahovo, close to the city of Ruse, discovered mammoth remains in the Danube River. The regional historical museum in Ruse confirmed the find includes a lower jaw, two molars, and a rib. Specialists now need to analyze the remains to determine their exact origin and age. Such prehistoric animal remains are not uncommon in the area, as the city museum already houses earlier discoveries and a full-sized mamut model. The remains are currently at the museum where experts will conduct further analysis. Museum spokesperson Silvia Kostadinova stated that the remains must first be dried before conservation can begin, according to the German agency dpa.
