Hmmm. The DNA is as different as a RINO from a TEA Partier, but both look like an elephant.

The researchers also made what they say are the first sequences of nuclear DNA from the extinct American mastodon. Cool. Bring back the mastodon!

I’m not getting how a genetic study establishes speciation. Can they interbreed (with fertile offspring) or not? Has no-one at a zoo ever even tried to interbreed them?

This is fascinating. They occupy similar geographical regions but continue to breed within their own ‘race’ as it were. This suggests a much higher level of social conditioning, and by default intelligence and self awareness than one might expect from an ‘animal’? :-)
