Day 5- Continue activity

The third morning dawns bright and beautiful with the sort of sunrise that only happens in Florida in the summer; thrushes singing, cicadas buzzing. The team heads out to what must be its last day of digging this season. At the site, an American crocodile walks past, paying little attention to the strange animals that are grubbing about in the mud. After several hours of digging and mucking, the team discovers three more bones. This makes a total of ten in three days. The team, fills in its hole, carefully marks the location on the map, and returns to camp for the last time. During the final evening in camp the team assembles its ten fossils.

What kind of animal do you think it is now?
