After my whinge about the bad news in the media, I'm delighted with the article in this morning's newspaper about the discovery of a 35 000 year old mummified woolly mammoth. It was found by a gold miner. The article thought it was important to say he was young which I find disappointing; I had imagined he would be grizzled old character, something like Walter Brennan, who chewed tobacco and rarely washed.
Anyway, the baby woolly mammoth had traces of grass in its stomach showing it was grazing when disaster struck.
