A tooth belonging to an Albertosaurus is one
of the bones found in the Edmonton sewer

Canadian workers have unearthed large dinosaur bones while digging a sewer tunnel in the city of Edmonton.

A tooth and limb bone, which experts believe belong to the Albertosaurus and the Edmontosaurus species, were found by drainage crews in the Quesnell Heights neighbourhood.

The Royal Tyrrell Museum is helping city officials to identify the fossils.

Museum officials said workers will continue to dig out bones still stuck inside the walls of the tunnel.

Andy Neuman, the executive director of the museum, said that although dinosaur bones had been discovered in Edmonton in the past, this was the first time the city of Edmonton has made the discovery.

3. I guess that proves Evolution is a lie once and for all.
How could dinosaur bones get into a sewer unless dinosaurs lived after man built the sewers? Hmmmm?
