The museum of natural history allegedly dumped tons of extinct mammal bones (mammoth tusks, dire wolf skulls, etc.) into the Hudson River about 100 years ago. They would be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars if someone were to find them and sell them now. It’s a modern day treasure hunt. Very cool, really.

The bones were allegedly thrown in the East River. But yes, still really cool.
