San Diego mammoth

Workers digging at a downtown San Diego construction site have uncovered the prehistoric remains of an 8-foot-long mammoth.

A backhoe operator working at the Thomas Jefferson School of Law site unearthed a 20-foot-long tusk Wednesday.

Seems like a long tusk to body ratio.

Maybe the tusk was from a different animal.
