A woman taking a Memorial Day weekend stroll on a Santa Cruz County beach found something unusual sticking out of the sand: a tooth from an ancient mastodon.
Thompson determined that the object was a worn molar from an adult Pacific mastodon, an extinct elephant-like species.But when they went back to the beach, the tooth was gone.
“We can safely say this specimen would be less than 1 million years old, which is relatively ‘new’ by fossil standards," Broughton said in an email.
