Day 736

At first we thought it was a mirage, the series of mountains so enormous we could barely see their peak but they felt real. Aerial shots of this area of Antarctica was just icy wilderness pretty much the same affair as the rest of the south pole in general.

The surface of the mountains seemed to be icy at first. That in itself was unusual as icy suggests there was, at some point, running liquid all down the mountainsides. Upon closer inspection and analysis of the mountain's surface we found them to be covered not in ice, but in enamel.

Specifically enamel similar to that of a whale. Somehow we were dealing with teeth big enough to rival Everest, teeth that had the remains of polar bears nestled well over every inch. At this point all we knew was that there (hopefully) had been a creature unlike any other we'd ever known and it fed solely on polar bears and other small warm-blooded prey.

It was impossible at first, to even think that an animal of such size could have ever existed, let alone found enough food to maintain itself. Perhaps that was how it died, as all the other gigantic beasts had, under their own weight.

We thought that at least. Then the upper jaw began to descend.
