Who knew mammoths were so vain? Wonder if there were mammoth tattoo parlors also?

They must have had a thing for two-humped camels.

Why.....yes......I can see it perfectly.

It looks just like a twice humped camel.....or a stick.

All that time, and all they hadda do was dig deeper. Used to be they hit Clovis and stopped. I’m so glad that dogma is fading.

Is that TWO humped camels....or two HUMPED camels.....or TWO HUMPED camels?
