Woolly Mammoth

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.

the meat for food, the bones for materials like musical instruments, the skin as clothing and the tusks for tents

snakes

Their tusks are teeth; the second set of incisors become the tusks. They are used for digging for food, for fighting during mating season, and for defense against predators.

one has a hairy mutt

My opinion would be no it would be cruel as mammoths have 3 layers of hair and therefore in most climates of the world a wholly mammoth would not be able to adapt.

But another argument people have is that it would be great to clone a mammoth a scientific leap! as you would be able to see it in its natural wildlife and allot more questions would be able to be answered as allot cannot be by just examing fossils like : why did they go extinct was it diseases from humans? and also their mating rituals but for this to happen an Asian elephant would have to carry a 20,000 year old mammoth which some say would not be fair!

Also people fear as an episode of Jurassic Park could come true! what would be next on the list the Dinosaur?

The reason the mammoth went extinct is cause when the ice age melted the climate began to heat up and it got really hot and the started to die when it got to hot it caused it to have a heat stroke

It's unknown when the first woolly mammoth was found. Various ancient peoples have found bones of mammoths throughout history, with a trade in tusks coming out of Siberia likely dating back extremely far, possibly to when humans and mammoths lived alongside in the arctic.

Mammoths were not recognized scientifically as different from elephants until 1796, when Georges Cuvier argued they were a new species of extinct ancient elephant

The demise of the woolly mammoth is still widely debated by researchers. Many, however, believe extinction was due to geological changes in soil and food that no longer allowed these large animals to obtain the vast amounts of nutrients they needed to survive. Evidence of osteoporosis and other severe bone diseases in mammoth remains have led scientists to this conclusion.

No.

They were or are herbivorous- as are Horses. I once saw what was billed as a living Baby Wooly Mammoth on the back of a not-too-large pickup truck at of all things a Church Flea Market in about l974. It was claimed the creature weighed 225 lbs, same as an average man, and top end for most dogs. I once saw a Bull-Mastiff named Battlewagon that weighed in at about 225.

Mammoth blood contains special cold adaptations that helped to survive in the Arctic. The oxygen carrying molecules in the blood of woolly mammoths was adapted to survive extreme cold. Mammoths had more than woolly coats to protect them from the frigid conditions of their sub-zero stomping grounds. The extinct beasts had a form of antifreeze blood.

They became extinct approximately 10,000 BC. they died because a comet exploded in the earths atmosphere in north America and that caused fires to spreed and killing everything it could of been the end of earth says national geographic!

The phrehistoric cavemen is also a big reason to why the woolly mammoth became extinct...

Woolly mammoths were about 9 to 12 feet tall. That isn't noticeably taller than Asiatic elephants, but the woolly mammoths did weigh more (up to 8 tons). There was also a dwarf variety of woolly mammoth that lived on Wrangel Island. They measured 6 to 7.5 feet tall.
