WOOLLY MAMMOTH - mammuthus primigenius Woolly Mammoth was a cold climate dweller equipped with a thick layer of fat for insulation, and an exterior of long black hair. The Woolly Mammoth was smaller than most mammoths, and had a hump of fat behind its domed head. It fed on low tundra vegetation in which it scraped away snow and ice from with its ivory tusks. Several well preserved remains have been found in Siberia and Alaska and cave paintings in Spain and France show depictions of the Woolly Mammoth as seen by early humans. The mammuthus primigenius went extinct only about 10,000 years ago.
