Researchers have solved the nearly 50-year-old mystery of Toronto’s “Subway Deer,” a fossil that was discovered in the 1970s during construction of the city’s subway.
A partnership between Trent University, the Royal Ontario Museum, and the Royal Alberta Museum helped discover the antler fossil dates back more than 11,000 years.
