Lost World Resurfaces in Riverside Park: Friday Ark #282
A recent walk led to an astonishing discovery, further evidence of the Lost World of Riverside Park.
Esau's Discovery
The beast was completely hidden at the base of a tree, high on a slope below the retaining wall near 112th Street.
Two Gray Beasts
So now we wonder … do elephants nest in the retaining wall?
Elephant's coloring may have evolved as adaptation to Riverside Park habitat

I think those guys may be relics of a lost world, too. And now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go buy Doritos, soda & other junk for the game.
