A group of mates on a Stag Do in New Mexico discovered whilst walking along a beach, a 3 million year old skull of a Stegomastodon, a relative of a woolly mammoth to you and I!

According to an article on the Telegraph’s website, the American bachelor party were hiking in Elephant Butte Lake State Park which is near Albuquerque when they saw a bone sticking out the sand. The boys starting digging and found a 453 kg skull which they thought was a woolly mammoth.

The stag group took a picture of this mammoth skull and sent it to the New Mexico of Natural History and science, who sent their best palaeontologist (always wanted to spell that, still can’t) who confirmed it was about 3 million years old.

Now this Stag Do may not rock your boat as you would prefer lap dancing clubs or high octane motor sports, but it’s a great story to tell your wedding guests, possibly the only story you could tell your wedding guests, what goes on tour and all that!
