Woolly Mammoth Tusk
Amazing find. Woolly mammoth tusk recovered from Alaska.
During gold mining operations in the permafrost regions of Alaska, miners have occasionally stumbled upon the astonishing remains of the Woolly Mammoth. These prehistoric giants, which roamed the Earth during the Pleistocene epoch, are often remarkably preserved due to the deep freeze of the permafrost. These finds, sometimes including complete tusks, bones, and even partial carcasses with fur and flesh, offer a rare and invaluable glimpse into the Ice Age. The discovery of these remains amidst gold mining activities highlights the richness of Alaska's underground history, providing both a window into the distant past and a reminder of the diverse and ancient ecosystems that once thrived in these now icy landscapes.
