** EXTRA EXTRA!!!!!!! ** ** Major Fossil Find May be the aftermath of a Major Earthquake... **

** Oct.14 2010- When a construction company stumbled upon a bone that was not just any bone it was a fossil. little did they know this fossil would lead to one of the biggest ever fossil finds in Colorado. This fossil find would include mammoths, mastodons, bisons, camelops, Pleistocene horse, and the first ever ground sloth found in Colorado. **

** Many scientists believe that a earthquake was what caused these animals to be deposited in the this spot. This theory is being even more tested as more species are found. Now over 34 species have been found and they still continue to find more as they continue to dig deeper into what really happened to these animals. This is an amazing discovery because not many fossils have been found at thid altitude and a gorund sloth has never been found in Colorado. This may because ground sloths might havelived at a higher altitude in this area. **

 * The mistake that one construction company made change history and possibly started one of the biggest fossil finds in Colorado. This one mistake turned into a great scientific discovery. This is possibly the most exciting mistake in history!! **
