African elephant. Despite their name mammoth's weren't all that big: five to eight feet at the shoulder.
According to my sources (Which may be wrong, I grant.) They were up to 13ft, the dwarf species were 5 - 8. They were 6-8 tons, up to a big 10-12 for large males. The tusks were large at 16ft. But don't forget the hair was up to 20 inches long, and very thick with another 3 inches of skin under that, a bit like the blubber of whales. But the muscles in their body were very strong for even their big size, and had lived with extremely dangerous predators.
Size isn't everything.
yes, of course the wooly mammoth had claws. there fore if you say that a wooly mammoth has claws in a game like scattergories (where the letter is 'W' and the question is "an animal with claws") then you would get the point. and I am a professor.
that would be a Wooly Mammoth
The most recent mammoth fossils are about 4,500 years old so it likely would have been somewhere shortly after this time.
These creatures are far apart in time. Trachodon is from the Late Cretaceous and the Wooly Mammoth are from Pleistocene period.
The scimitar cat survived mostly on young wooly mammoth that would have wandered away from the herd.
The wooly mammoth was a very big and wooly animal.It also was king of the mammals.
Like ALL mammals, the wooly mammoth was a warm blooded animal. A cold blooded animal would not survive in snow and ice.
Elephants are good swimmers, so there's no reason to think that a wooly mammoth couldn't swim. The water would be very cold, though.
Yes. Any ivory over a certain age is considered "fossil" ivory, and the tusk from a woolly mammoth would certainly qualify. Where to sell it? I'd recommend Sotheby's.
The Wooly Mammoth weighed 12000 - 20000 lbs.
All the wooly mammoths were frozen to death. They got frozen in a big ice burg and are still preserved at sea somewhere. but nobody has found them yet so they are lonley at sea and they need a friend:( if you were a wooly mammoth trapped in an ice cube you would be cold to.
The wooly mammoth was a species of prehistoric elephants. The impact of the meteor left a mammoth crater on the lunar surface. He travels to Mammoth Cave every year.
