Really?
I have read reports of Mammoths found frozen in glacial ice with flowers in their stomachs.
So, at most a few hours before this mammoth was frozen to death it was eating spring flowers. Sounds to me like that in the past climate change has happened very quickly.
In re the elephants that was the Noahic Flood.
A sudden drastic cooling over the vast artic areas froze them in place while causing a vast planet wide condensation with rain and flooding over the whole Earth. The flood in Noah’s day! The glacial sheets were the remains of that flood which have proceeded to melt since that time. That’s my view. Those “flash frozen” mammoths were found in areas that supposedly had been buried once by 2 miles of thick ice” in an age that lasted thousands of years. I think it was a much shorter period than that.
Just my opinion...
