"But his strangest project of late involves a dog-sized skeleton, the identity of which has baffled experts, he claimed. A friend of his, Frank Pryor, found the creature while out with his deer-hunting bow, about six years ago, near Fort Chaffee in western Arkansas. It had been dead for about a month. Pryor, a government meat and poultry inspector now living in Dodge City, Kan., says that what he at first thought was a rib of a calf poking through the leaves turned out to look like a fin on closer inspection. That got him thinking. "I wondered what runs around the woods with a big fin on its back," he recalled. "It looks like a baby Godzilla."
...then said, "Money talks. Maybe. I don't know." Chastain, who is acting as Pryor's agent, finds nothing distasteful about making a profit off the skeleton. As a longtime treasure hunter, he knows that the returns are sometimes slim for the many hours he devotes to his hobby. He plans to peddle his meteorite rock over the Internet for about $4,000. "We put in a lifetime of finding that stuff and we want compensation for it," he said. Richard Bedard is a correspondent for The Journal Record.
