Random Jaw Bones
Understandably, some items found in sewers cannot be identified, no matter how much time people spend examining and studying them. That was the case with the mysterious jaw bone found in a sewer in Canada back in 2009. The bone could have belonged to any one of a number of herbivorous animals. In Canada, bone discoveries aren’t such a shock since the region is known to have a higher-than-average distribution of dinosaur remains. However, finding a bone in a completed tunnel is more unusual.
Toy Soldiers
As the saying goes, “Life imitates art”. In Scotland, workers found themselves living almost a real-life Toy Story. This group of workers was processing sewage back in 2010 and was able to retrieve an entire platoon of toy soldiers. After cleaning off the toys, they were mounted on a plaque and put on display on the office wall for several years. While this story wasn’t a happy ending for the child who lost the toys, we’re sure it made the workers’ day!
