A case of mistaken identity: Mammoth fossils from Alaska turn out to belong to two ancient whales (phys.org)

For more than 70 years, what were thought to be mammoth fossils were tucked away in the archives of the University of Alaska Museum of the North. During the museum's Adopt-a-Mammoth program, which allows the public to sponsor testing of individual fossils, these ancient remains were removed from their drawers and radiocarbon-dated.
