Snow Yuga Mexico Mexico is hidden in a Mexican cave

Mammad, Chaber-Bal LTTE, camels, bison, clippodones and five tons of laziness: they all around the so-called Mexico today. The Offet account of how the remnants of these snow -aged giants were found in a little known and hard -hard cave Award -winning, mild documentary Is called the “grip of megabown.”

In March 2019, the story began when Louis Espinasa, Cave Biologist at the University of Marist, New York, went to study cave fish in a small -known cave in Sierra Dell Abrah, San Luis Potos.

Blind cave fish

“The eye -catching and eyes with the eyes of the same fish, is popularly known as the cave Tetra – it was found in a small cave near the Chiudad Vallace,” says Espinasa. “It was a small cave. There was nothing but a sink that would lead to a pond that lived together. The cave seemed to be a place to study their behavior and witness the consequences of the natural choice.”

While examining the cave system, the virgin discovered a gateway that led to the passage. Epinasa and his colleagues went to the first look.

Dream

Epinasa says: “After a vertical pit descended, the passage had a tall of a sandy floor with a sandy floor. We crawl on our hands and knees. Unfortunately, it was quickly converted to 40 centimeters (16 inches) to a miserable belly with height.”

“But the lower ceiling is not the main problem. Instead of the comfortable sand base, there was a dream of hard, sharp rocks on the bottom. Every movement sends sharp pain through your body. These rocks seem to have a harmful purpose, excavated our skin with morale.

The most important event of this first visit occurred at the entrance pool, but at the time, Epinasa did not pay attention to it.

A velveti black jawbone

“While I was swimming in the pool, I saw a large jaw bone in the soil of the cave base. Its surface was once a bone, subject to a significant fossil process. The minerals were smashed into a large jaw of a jaw of its sardi. Black.”

“In fact, the fossil jaw of an ancient and extinct forest was in my hands. But there was no wildness in Mexico. So what did I do? My fellow researchers said, ‘A horse jaw… cold!’ He threw it back into the pool. ”

Espinaza found many unattended paragraphs, and many of them are scattered with velvet, black, fossil bones. To analyze the becoming a complex organization, he called his brother, brother -in -law and daughter -in -law, and all the expert caves were mastered on the cave map.

Mysterious molar

One day, deep into the cave, Epinasa’s daughter -in -law Sofia saw a large rock with a semi -circular, parallel ridges. Thinking that this was a ammonite, she took off her cavings, covered the rock in it, put it in her napsak and went out. Crossing the tight columns must lift the heavy bag again and put the length of a hand in front of her every time.

“She showed it to me,” Epinasa comments, “Hmmm, it is not right to be a mallus about it.” Then, suddenly my brain clicked, and I felt what it was. ”

But there were no elephants in Mexico and never existed. What was the elephant Molar doing in San Louis Botos? It was at that moment that Espinasa Molar belonged to a uncle, that the bones of the group’s bones across the cave were not modern, and that the fossils from the ice were in fact.

It was clear that the group calling the grip of Meghafoun should now be protected, but the landowners and the local community – in fact, the whole world of its importance – had to collect and list its fossils.

Robot-Tedi for Recovery

The problem is cave. Some of the best-looking bones, for example, a passage called the Group-Sutt Valam called El Arastre Lodoso. It was 40 centimeters high. The site was covered with sharp rocks as usual, but in this column, all the rocks were coated with thick soil. Other trusted galleries were filled with water. It was more than a man can handle.

In this case, the group decided to bring a small underwater drone with a nail capable of understanding a bone. They named it Robot-Tedi.

Thanks to the robot-deed and the hair-grown scuba-diving, researchers were able to list 775 models. These include a chapel-palm tiger, a bad wolf, a cliptodon, and a giant laziness, which weighs five tonnes and six meters high.

At one point, they saw three spine of a snow yug. When they discovered that all three pieces were merged together, they realized that there were complete bodies of Megafown in the cave. The inevitable question arose: Are humans involved in the deaths of these creatures?
