A man discovers a giant mastodon molar in a western New York bog on his land. The 6 inch front-to-back tooth and associated bones suggest a female mastodon, about 8 feet tall, lived 10,000 years ago. Museums hold many mastodon fossils across the United States.
Paleontologists, including Dan Fisher of the University of Michigan and David Webb of the University of Florida, discuss a female-to-male ratio in mastodon remains. They speculate on how hunting by humans and herd dynamics may have shaped extinction risk, noting more males may be found alone or in vulnerable groups.
Israeli forces expanded operations in the West Bank striking two refugee camps and firing missiles at Yasser Arafat in Ramallah where he met the EU Mideast envoy. Eight Palestinians died and over 20 were injured as the ceasefire frays and Washington voices criticism of Israel's actions. Arafat pledged Palestinians would not be cowed.
The narrator and Eddy argue over a bold experiment and a bet. The narrator concedes defeat but Eddy insists he can succeed, showing off by walking on three legs in the dark as a challenge and tease.
