Gold miners accidentally discover an ancient woolly rhino mummy with well-preserved horn and tissues.

An impressive discovery was made in the Republic of Sakha, Russia, when miners found a mummified carcass of a woolly rhinoceros (Coelodonta antiquitatis). The find occurred while they were excavating a quarry for gold mining. The carcass was found in a remarkably preserved state, with its horns and soft tissues still intact, due to the extreme permafrost conditions in the region.
