A Mammoth tusk has been found on the seabed in deep sea. Could those beasts swim?

No. But tusks and bits of rhino and hippo are dredged from the North Sea all the time.

Sure they could swim, but not deep sea... remember though that during the last ice age the sea levels were a lot lower cause there was ten thousand feet of ice over much of the northern hemisphere...

The english channel wasn't flooded for example.

There is a well known elephants graveyard mid channel where trawlers often pulled up tusks in the 70s

You understand that most of the North Sea used to be land right?

No, they're more closely related to whales.

I was just reading that

I also change my answer to anything could have got him, but I do prefer my Meg answer and a giant 40ft ancient Croc species is a new contender
