Golf Course Groundskeeper Unearths 10-Pound Mammoth's Tooth

SARANAC -- Patrick Walker, a groundskeeper at Morrison Lake Country Club, says he's glad he paid attention in high school science classes.

That's how he knew he was probably looking at the tooth of a 10,000-year-old mammoth while grooming the course last week.
