What animals lived with humans and mammoths during the Younger Dryas in new england?
braxasaurus posted a topic in Questions & Answers
(I ask for paleoart purposes) what animals lived in the northeastern, more specifically New England, even most specifically massachusetts/cape cod. I want to make a peice with some megafauna that lived during the Younger Dryas, and mabe some early humans if my inability to draw humans becomes at least somewhat better. Thank you!- 5 replies

All, Pleasure to meet everyone here. I have been a avid collector of Ohio ancient culture artifacts and fossils for over 30+ years focused on North America primarily focused on Ohio regions. I enjoy walking creeks and hunting fields in my spare time. I recently was walking a creek in my county and came across a strange fossil which appears to be a large tooth or bone. It is not a Mastodon or Mammoth. I would love to post and share with everyone to review. Respectfully, Michael
