Was the death of this wolf from the meteor strike that destroyed Clovis culture in North America. I know that I have read reports of Siberian Mammoths that were flash frozen so they had undigested buttercup flowers in their stomachs. If so this would explain why the RNA could have been preserved. Flash frozen and then buried without ever thawing until now.
Time for the Firestone, et al book?
Ooh! Good call!
The Cycle of Cosmic Catastrophes:
Flood, Fire, and Famine
in the History of Civilization
by Richard Firestone,
Allen West, and
