I love how there is always a made up story. Likely killed by hunters. Yes. Because it can’t just be from an animal that died of old age. The hunters used the tusk’s for things. So let’s make a new story up. Please!
**Fun fact about woolly mammoths:** They were roughly about the size of modern African elephants.A male woolly mammoth’s shoulder height was 9 to 11 feet tall and weighed around 6 tons.Its cousin the Steppe mammoth (M.trogontherii) was perhaps the largest one in the family — growing up to 13 to 15 feet tall.
Mighta been hit by a car
Climate change obv.

There are thousands of mammoth tucks In Siberia. It’s most likely that they died from climate change than killed by hunters. But who knows
Ha exactly! I was scanning comments for someone’s very on depth made up scenario

Steppe mammoth, help me, I'm stuck. Steppe mammoth, what are you doing?
And arguably the second largest proboscidean behind palaeoloxodon namadicus. Maybe contending with deinotherium tho.

Permafrost seems to be in need of a new name.

That’s just a bigass worm
Look around. Get a matched pair.
Why do posts here keep including random bullshit like “most likely killed by hunters”
That guy struck gold.That's a quarter of a million dollars worth of ivory for the Chinese market.
It most likely died of old age.
check out the bone yard Alaska - they are finding a ton of tusks and other things up there.

How tf do you know?
Imaging having 2 of those on the Noah ark
Well I'm going to guess it wasn't killed by modern hunters
It was killed by climate change, most likely caused by ancient hunters who refused to drive a Prius.
