Extremely low water levels on the Danube River in Bulgaria have exposed the remains of a mammoth, including a jawbone and parts of its tusks. The findings were made near the city of Ruse in northeastern Bulgaria and are believed to belong to an Ice Age mammoth. According to Nikolay Nenow, director of the Regional History Museum, the bones suggest the animal was young at the time of death. Additional fragments, including parts of a shoulder blade and femur, were also discovered. The dark coloration of the bones indicates the mammoth spent much time in swampy areas. The discovery is considered significant by archaeologists due to the well-preserved condition of the remains and their concentration at a single location, suggesting they belonged to a single individual. A local resident discovered the bones by accident before they were taken to the museum. The low water levels are attributed to lack of rainfall and consecutive heatwaves since May, leading to record lows in certain sections of the river. In Romania, two nuclear reactors were shut down due to insufficient cooling water.
