Dutch Man Puts Mammoth Skeleton Up For Auction

By   get stories by email

"A Dutch man who spent 10 years putting together an entire mammoth skeleton said he is putting it up for auction with a starting bid of $367,895.

Bart Schenning of Gaarderen said the mammoth, assembled from 280 bones mostly dredged up by fishing nets, is being auctioned on website Marktplaats because he does not have room to keep the skeleton."


This loser wasted ten years putting together an entire mammoth skeleton, and now he thinks he is going to hit the jackpot by selling the hideous thing at an online auction?

Nobody is going to buy the damn thing, unless there's an image of Jesus Christ on one of the bones.

Bart (last name should be Simpson) can't sell the skeletal remains to a museum, most museums in the Netherlands already have a mammoth in their collection.

Bart should carve out a bong from one of the bones, and try to forget his miserable predicament.
