Fruitbat Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 The first time I visited what is now the Waco Mammoth Site back in the 1980s, the prevailing thought was that a lightning strike had killed all of those beasties. Funny how things change, isn't it? Thanks for the updates, Paul! -Joe Illigitimati non carborundum Fruitbat's PDF Library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
