Yes, and how interesting that this very well-preserved mammoth corpse must be “thousands of years old.”

[Robe]

Anyone read Clive Clussler’s new book, Polar Shift???..
Part of the plot revolves around two Japanese scientists finding a fully preserved baby woolly mammoth in Siberia..... coinkie dink????

Looks like they've packed it in a truck. Ironic.

You are mistaken, it’s an elephant not a RINO.

So now you’re desecrating ancient monuments?

The periglacial areas were the best for grazing.

The wall of the glacier shielded the area from the bitter north wind, the dazzling vertical wall acts as a solar concentrator providing more heat and light for plant growth, the glacial till provides a rich, well conditioned soil, while moraines trap ponds of melt water.

Up near the face of the glacier is the best grazing for 1000 miles!

Until a big chunk breaks off and pounds you into the muck before you even have a chance to swallow that mouthful of marigolds...

That’s pretty amazing, but it looks like a modern elephant to me.

You took the words right out of my mouth. Fred Flintstone, here we come! I've got a cousin who has an exotic animal ranch in West Texas, I'm sure he'd like to try and figure out how to put together a herd of these things.

[samtheman]

LOL!

[bert]

YUMMM.. Mammoth veal.

[nmh]

Aw, she’s kind of cute.

They are neat animals.

[commonguymd]

Sure looks like a juvenile elephant to me.
