A Rare Discovery
One morning, Juan took his cows out to graze near a river next to his farm. But just as he gazed out at the river, he noticed some odd formations sticking out of a dried-out riverbed. So Juan called up a group of local archeologists to come and take a look. Not knowing what to expect, the archeologists began to dig.

They soon realized that Juan discovered a group of rare fossils belonging to glyptodons, which are ancient ancestors of the modern-day armadillo. Pablo Messineo, one of the archeologists working on the project, told reporters that they expected to find two glyptodons, but as they continued to dig, they actually found two more.
