• Plumber Jonathan Betts, 36, of Devon, England, was working on a bathroom in a 200-year-old home when the project called for him to dig down beneath the subfloor, Fox News reported.
As he dug, he turned up bones -- including a jawbone with teeth.
"I knew it was an animal as the teeth didn't look like ours," he said.
He searched pictures on Google and consulted others before determining the bones were from a pig.
"We found out that back in the day, people buried them to ward off bad spirits," Betts said.
To that end, the homeowners requested that he rebury them under the new floor. [Fox News, 1/22/2024]
