Woolly Mammoth

bob the builder :)

It only have one baby at a time but might only have one in there whole life time.

Not any more. Its extinct.

Up to 16 feet long

It lived in Russia 100,000 mya to10,000 years ago

The Woolly Mammoth is a Herbivore, meaning it only eats plant matter.

in Russia and Europe then migrated to north America across beringia

The wooly mammoth lived in the Cenozoic era, the Tertiary period, Pleistocene epoch, and the Calabrian age.

YES! millionssss and millionsss years ago

Wooly mammoths were roughly the same sizes as modern elephants, males averaging 9 to 11 feet tall, and females reaching up to 8 or 9ft.

The mammoth were monstrous at birth, weighing in at 200lb, and growing up to be a massive 6-7 ton creature. The physical structures and adaptations of the woolly mammoth was it's greatest asset in the cold environment during the ice age. Covered in longer hairs on the outer

layer, and short guard hairs closer to the body, heat loss wasn't a problem, it also had shorter ears than the modern African element that it resembles, in order to prevent frostbite. Lastly, the mammoth had large tusks, which were replaced six times throughout their lifetime, and used these tusks for working with objects, fighting prey and other mammoths, and foraging.

The wooly mammoth could be said to be the cause of most of the problems in modern society, and my everyday life, as the mammoths thrived mainly in Eurasia, henceforth, the mammoths were hunted in by Euro-Asian communities. These communities thrived due to the mammoth, and continued to due so, these communities thrived for generations, and these generations gave birth to some of the most treacherous men in world history (e.g Hitler), men who caused wars my relatives fought in, or faced the repercussions from. Because my family basically fought against the mammoths that caused the downfall of modern society, i am where i stand today. I am free because the woolly mammoths are extinct

Habitat and Niche

Mammuthus Primigenius

SEAHORSES

The primary habitat in which the Woolly Mammoth resided in was the Arctic Tundra, across the northern parts of Eurasia and Northern America

During the winter it is very cold and dark, with the average temperature around −28 °C (−18 °F), sometimes dipping as low as −50 °C (−58 °F).

Generally daytime temperatures during the summer rise to about 12 °C (54 °F) but can often drop to 3 °C (37 °F) or even below freezing.

The specific niche of the mammoth was very similar to that of a modern elephant.....just colder.....hence the wool......it ate the sparse vegetation found throughout the tundra, grass and sedge. As a herbivore, it's role in nature was a primary producer, a large source of meat for predators.

WOOLLY MAMMOTHS:EXTINCT

Jalen Faulkner's joke

The woolly mammoth started to die out late in Pleistocene epoch.

At first, it was said the cause of death is either the vast climate change, humans, or a mix of both.

The idea that climate lead to their death has been ruled however due to the fact that the species was alive around 1700 B.C, at that the point had already changed climate significantly since the last ice age, therefore scientist believe that mammoths were either overhunted or died by disease

They were over-hunted due to the fact that they were such a large supply of meat and their fur was extremely useful.

Supposedly, the woolly mammoth still rooms the sparse and rarely inhabited taigas of Alaska and Russia. In the 19th century, Russian tribesmen reported seeing, "large furry creatures, the size of elephants."

much wooly

very mammoth

such tusks

wow

Woolly mammoths probably only attacked animals who they considered threats, like modern elephants do today. For example, the leader of an elephant herd, the matriarch, will charge at animals, including humans, if it feels they are a threat to the rest of the herd, although most of the time it is just a bluff. Male elephants, however, do fight with each other over females, although it rarely results in injury.

It is a mammal, for it gave live birth. It was the ancestor of the modern day elephant.

There are many present day animals that are relatives of the woolly mammoth. The Elephant is the most recognizable, but, there are in fact others such as the Rat, leopard and Turkey are all relatives as well.

Woolly mammoths lived in Siberia and Europe during the last Ice Age, and died out about 10,000 years ago, except for a population of dwarf woolly mammoths that lived on Wrangel Island until only 3,700 years ago.

Mammoths had a similar diet to the African bush elephant. They primarily ate grass, which means that they were grazers. They also ate fruits and leaves on occasion.

Eurasia and North America (Woolly Mammoth that is). Good places are gravel pits and... the bottom of the North Sea! The North Sea was a plain during the last ice age with lots of animals, such as ancient bison, giant elk, reindeer, woolly rhino, horses, lions, hyena and mammoths. Fishing boats catch many fossils in their nets, with more than a thousand mammoth teeth alone each year!

yes

the giant plant eater and prey like the elephant it was not hunted much until humans came actually the humans did not hunt mammoths all the time they hunted them a little bit more the the other canovores.

back too the question the migrated and where rarely challaenged by anything but a baby would be easy and where a big source of food a walking food jackpot.

Adult woolly mammoths were so large that they had few predators. Predators of adult woolly mammoths would have been prehistoric humans and Neanderthals, and possibly Eurasian cave lions and Homotherium (a type of saber-toothed cat). Juveniles and calves would definitely have been hunted by all of the above predators as well as by cave hyenas, which would not have been able to kill an adult mammoth.

Wolly mammoths came after dinosaurs.

A wooly mammoth is 11ft tall and somtimes over this is for a fully grown Wooly Mammoth also people say the wooly mammoth is sometimes 15ft tall but that might be a rumor

everywhere that was below freezing, most of the time, i believe

A Mammoth is an extinct genus of proboscidean (of which the Elephant belongs), often with long curved tusks and, in northern species, a covering of long hair. They lived from 4.8 million years ago to around 3,500 years ago. There are some 11 species of mammoth known from the fossil records, and they are distributed broadly across the earth. A word more recently used to mean massive or very large. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on the mammoth. Many more facts are easily gathered, there. Some good pictures and drawings are also on display.
