Columbian Mammoth
The Pleistocene Columbian Mammoth (Mammuthus columbi) was the
largest mammal to have been trapped in the La Brea Tar Pits. Some
individuals stood over 13 feet tall. The mammoth migrated into North
America from Asia about 2 million years ago. The Columbian Mammoth
was larger, but less hairy, than the wooly mammoth which lived near
the ice sheets in the northern end of the continent. The mammoth
became extinct about 11,000 years ago - about the same time the first
humans migrated into North America.
