I doubt it would be able to find anything to eat during the winter of the ice age. That's why they are fat during winter. I think during the summer the mammoths had a wide area of food so they ate while they can. It's a bit like a squirrel before hibernation. It eats all it can get it's hand on before autumn is finish.

And being fat during winter helps with heat loss. So they don't freeze to death.

Where does a mammoths live?

Some researchers have doubts that mammoths lived in the cold climate zones. Recently, Russian scientists have received strong evidence of woolly mammoths' frost-resistance - they possessed sebaceous glands. The trip to visit mammoths was paid by the International Scientific and Technical Center, and the researchers' search for sebaceous glands was supported by the Federal Target Scientific and Technical Program entitled "Investigations and Developments for Science and Engineering Priority Guidelines in 2002-2006".Specialists of the VECTOR State Research Center for Virology and Biotechnology and the Zoological Institute (Russian Academy of Sciences) have discovered sebaceous glands in the skin of woolly mammoths, the scientific community unsuccessfully looking for sebaceous glands for more than a hundred years. As sebaceous glands are an instrument of adaptation to cold climate, the discovery by Russian scientists serves a convincing argument in the dispute whether the mammoths did live in the frost.
