Washington state has no laws governing finds of this type. And Jack Horner of the Museum of the Rockies and Montana State University said that is true anywhere in the United States. " Americans like their private land," said Horner, one of the nation's most famous paleontologists. Americans don't like to pass laws putting restrictions on owners of private land, even to protect history, he said. There are some protection laws in Canada. In the province of Alberta, for example, a find like a mammoth tusk would automatically belong to the province, Horner said. He hopes the landowner in this case will donate the tusk to the Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture at the University of Washington. It's a relatively rare find and should be preserved for educational reasons, so children will know mammoth elephants once lived in Seattle, he said. " A lot of times, people think these things are worth a lot of money," Horner said. Their true value is educational, not what someone can sell a tusk for on eBay, he said. Alaina Smith, director of external affairs at the museum, said museum officials have been working with the property owners. " They've agreed to allow the Burke to excavate the fossil. They've been very supportive. They're great," Smith said. Scott Koppelman, senior vicepresident at AMLI Residential, which is constructing an apartment building on the land, said their first response when they heard of the find was to determine how the community could benefit from it. " The excavation will cause us some construction delay, but the scientific and educational benefits of this discovery clearly outweigh the costs and delay. This is an exciting discovery for our local Northwest history," Koppelman said. Mammoth elephants lived all over the United States and Europe in ancient times, but finding a tusk or any part of those animals is rare, Horner and other experts said. " We don't find them every year or even every five years," he said. In most cases, artifacts found at construction sites are destroyed by a big machine before anyone even notices them, Horner said. Allyson Brooks, the Washington state preservation officer, said the situation would be different if construction workers had found human remains or other items or archaeological value because Washington state has laws for those situations. The last big find of an ancient animal of this sort in western Washington happened in 1977, when a Mastodon tusk was found near Sequim, Wash., on the Olympic Peninsula. Mammoths and mastodons are related and probably roamed the Earth around the same time. Both were very large and hairy. Mammoths and modern- day elephants are members of the same biological family. - The Associated Press Gonna need a bigger ice pick Stephen Garcia works on a giant snow sculpture of a shark in the front yard of his home, in Grand Rapids, Mich.
