We Found Something: A Real New Mexico Story
It appeared to be a dinosaur. While hanging out at our favorite part of the lake we noticed some odd formations. Upon closer inspection we found a skull, spine and maybe a really long tail. We decided to call it into the park service and let them check it out. In 1995 a T-Rex jaw had been found near this area. It is rumored that Elephant Butte Lake had once been a hunting ground for the T-Rex. The ranger who came to the call was calling it in to Santa Fe, to a department that handles these things. We'll check in with him tomorrow to find out what exactly it is. More soon. . .

Wow, that's pretty cool.
Way cool...keep us posted!!
The ranger welcomed us to check in tomorrow and find out what happened. Of course we could go back and revisit the spot. We'll post again with the results. I just loaded some more pics.
Cool. A bone test is to lick the end of the suspected bone and if it sticks to your tongue, it's bone.
Wow, how exciting! Keep us updated!
Dean, I did the lick test (yes I kept a piece!) and it stuck! It's bone.
Wow! Knowing you, Wendy, it's probably some transitional species never before identified ;)
