The Most Disturbing Prehistoric Things Found While Drilling For Oil
Every barrel of oil is a message from a vanished world, and when the drills go down they do not just find fuel, they find the dead. From an active California oil field that hides saber-toothed cats to a Trinidad lake of tar that swallows giants, from Arctic dinosaurs uncovered by the Prudhoe Bay boom to mammoths surfacing through exploding Siberian gas fields, these ten discoveries reveal that the ground we drain for energy is a graveyard of deep time. This is the disturbing truth buried beneath the oil industry: to power modern life, we are quietly excavating the remains of everything that came before us.
