        How can it only be a million years old if they were extinct over 50 million years ago?

        The fossil is from a stegomastadon, an extinct cousin of elephants that lived from 4.9 million to a mere 30-thousand years ago. :)

        So it's an elephant not a dinosaur?

        So no it's not a dinosaur. It is however, very cool. Fossils are like forensic science. The more samples you have, the better.
