Mammoth teeth are relatively rare but can be found in certain regions, particularly in areas where mammoths once roamed, such as Siberia and parts of North America. Fossilized remains, including teeth, are more commonly discovered due to their durability compared to other body parts. However, the chances of finding complete or well-preserved mammoth teeth are low, making them valuable for both scientific research and collectors.

The Haraldskaer Woman is an Iron Age bog body found naturally preserved in a bog in Jutland, Denmark. Labourers discovered the body in 1835 while excavating peat on the Haraldskaer Estate.

The body of the Haraldskaer Woman was preserved due to the anaerobic (shortage of oxygen) conditions and acids of the peat bog in which she was found. Not only was the intact skeleton found, but also the skin and internal organs.
