Not everything was frozen, there was still some visible foliage, they could also tell when there was grass and plants under thin layers of snow or ice, they would just dig to it

How did scientists find the baby mammoth?

I read about them in a book when I was about 5 years old. Scientists know about them because of bones and frozen carcasses that have been found. The frozen carcasses are from the tundra in Alaska or Russia, and the bones can come from anywhere where woolly mammoths lived in Russia, northern Europe, and Alaska.


Was a frozen intact dinosaur found?

Not so far. Here's the problem: we find frozen mammoths because mammoths lived during the last Ice Age, which just (geologically speaking) ended. Dinosaurs lived much, much longer ago and since then there have been many warm periods when all the ice melted, even in Anarctica. If any dinosaurs had been frozen, they would have been thawed out long ago.

What is the characteristics of the wooly mammoth?

Woolly mammoths were about as tall as a modern-day Asian elephant. Bulls could weigh as much as 8 tons and stood somewhere between approximately 9 feet tall and 13 feet tall. Woolly mammoths had an outer layer of shaggy hair and an underlayer of wool to keep them warm in the cold climates that they inhabited. They had long, curved tusks that could grow to be up to 16 feet long. Mammoths also had a large hump on their back that scientists believe may have been used to store fat. Scientists speculate that mammoths used their tusks to clear away snow in effort to find food and travel more easily. Scientists have also found evidence that the mammoths would rest their trunk on one of their tusks.
