ihanlon Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Hello! I am a fifth grade teacher in Minnesota, and one of my students found this in the woods out in California. We are very curious about what it is! If you can provide us with any clues, we would greatly appreciate it. Thanks a lot, Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
