The Admiral Byrd story is a lot older that the stuff you found, it originates from what was claimed to be a true journal of the expedition that involves seeing mammoths, ufo's, and all sorts of stuff that he was ordered to never speak about, but kept a secret journal of and, supposedly, left for his son who gave it to someone else to publish years after the Admirals death
i recall seeing a black and white film, i believe it was shot from a train in siberia, and it looked pretty authentic of a single , what seemed to be mammoth walking. I would estimate it was shot in the 40's or 50's, mammoth and it was very clear. unfortunately it was a rear view of the mammoth. you might try finding it, if you do by some chance find it, I believe you would be impressed. I am near 70 years old and It was in my 20's or 30's that I saw it, if that would help in any way.

Like all clones they are genetically inferior
Honestly, it'd be pretty funny if Colossal brought back the Mammoth and then we find a population of them already roaming Siberia or Alaska, although I think something like that would be more plausible with the much smaller Thylacine, instead of a multi-ton behemoth.
I agree. Are you still planning on making a Thylacine video?
@@wildworld6264 Yeah. Currently just in a rough patch when it comes to content creation, so videos might be delayed for a while. I will be interviewing Sharktoz and Creature Challenge soon though, so I'll at least get something out this month.
@CalvinTheCarnotaurus Fair enough. Sharktoz makes great content, looking forward to that interview.
If Colossal is smart... They wait for a population to be found and just claimed it was them... Copying homework on a colossal scale. (Get it?)
Siberia is a big & largely untraveled portion of the world. Pretty much the only easy travel we have through it is by air or by water, and that’s only a few months out of the year. If there ever was a place, they’d be there.
I've lived in Fairbanks Alaska for 60 years I've heard these stories my whole life
If I saw one - I would keep my mouth shut, and so would many other people.
Moose with horns under an elongated nose
@@paulsawczyc5019nope you'd tell everyone
I'm from Cordova, and I've heard these stories from my grandpa and godfather--who's Tlinket.
The Mighty Wooly Mamoth still roams the earth as it should be, Amen.
In 2015 a seismic sensor was destroyed by an unusual large animal stepping on it and crushed it in Alaska. Also Alaskan Natives say they hunted them as recently as 200 years ago and described the Mammoths to white men. Also in the early twentieth century a Native turned in a tusk with flesh and blood still on it, to a trader. A scientist saw huge tracks like elephant tracks in mud less than a hundred years ago in Alaska.
Any sources? VERY Intriguing!
You are correct and he conveniently leaves this information out of his video.
Totally believable . a few scientific finds support the relatively recent existence of mammoths and also dinosaurs.
I saw that documentary also recently, it was quite interesting as it was professionals in sisemologists and scientists that were reporting on this.
I'm headed to Alaska this summer ...wish me luck!
@@hcpookienotice how no one has sourced any claims yet and also thrown "there's still dinos" in too... And presumably they mean non avian dinos
Many, many years ago, I remember reading that the bones of pygmy mastadons were found on islands off the coast of California. And that coastal indiginous tribes had tales of how they had been hunted to extinction as part of their oral histories. I forgot the source years ago, but I would love to see you explore this. Great content 👌
In a College Speech Class I did a speech about possible Surviving Mammoths based on the Mammoth chapter in Heuvelmans' book and the MacLean's Magazine story. It was a 5 minute speech and I had over 15 minutes of questions--I got an A on the speech.
That's awesome!
👍
Well done.
That capitalization is dog s**t.
When I was a young boy, living in a West Virginia, my Pop would tell a story about pterodactyls living in the secluded woods of a nearby mountain. A few months later, I saw an episode of Jonny Quest with a Pteranodon and was convinced. Long live imagination!
Not surprised so much of our reality is hidden from us
Loved Jonny Quest! Race Bannon was my hero.
@@retriever19golden55
He was mine as well……but a hero can only emerge and his status established => based on the villain’s ability to be menacing, terrifying and cunningly dangerous/evil…….I loved Race but the fact that each member of the Quest team had their own strengths and unique skills => and brought them to bear to overcome obstacles and defeat the villains => really drew me in.
The fact that the two boy’s contributions were needed and expected, made me feel I could be of value even at a young age.
I quickly bought the DVD Set when it came out…….so our kids and grandkids could enjoy them.
Nearly every episode is a gem and the lessons……priceless!
The smithsonian is notorious for "losing" things that prove our real history.
Very true.
The Smithsonian LOST Every Single Giant Skeleton Ever Found IN AMERICA That they ever got Their Hands ON And Then DENIED they ever Existed So If I found something Like that I would NEVER TELL THEM ABOUT IT !!
@@barneyrice8502 I strongly doubt if anything skeleton was ever "lost" but stored in the Smithsoiniam Archive Holdkings.
My biggest question for stuff like this is why? why would they decide to do this? What do they gain from this?
@@HighSpeedNoDrag "I strongly doubt if anything skeleton was ever "lost" but stored in the Smithsoiniam Archive Holdkings."
Then why do they deny them? Yet there are photographs of them plus newspaper articles about them..
Thomas Jefferson actually believed Mammoths were roaming the Great Plains. When he sent Lewis and Clark he hoped that they would find a mammoth. The fact that Jefferson thought this is pretty interesting.
Thomas Jefferson along with the scientific community back in the day thought extinction was impossible because they believed that God wouldn't have had his hard work going to waste like that. However, it wasn't until Georges Cuvier compared the morphology of extant and extinct species proboscideans, rhinoceroses, and sloths that he was able to partially show that extinction is a scientific reality. What really solidify extinction as evident reality is the fossil record itself as it showed various lineages of animals that not only evidently aren't around anymore but they would have been found by now if they were still around.
Also believed owning people was okay to mate.
I guess you missed the part of how he has so many African American decendants huh ? 😂 perfect photo for someone so dumb
@@matthew-jy5jpcolonizer mindset
That's because the idea of extinction was really uncommon at the time. It might sound like common sense that species can go extinct, but it just wasn't something people thought happened.
Part of that belief was also likely from his feud with a french naturalist, who believed North America had worse animals, and Jefferson thought the reverse, that there were just as amazing and diverse animals in North America as in Europe or Africa or Asia.
There's actually the idea that when people see these animals, they're seeing time anomalies and seeing into the past. Seeing ghosts, if you will.
Different kinds of magnetic fields can definitely influence the human brain in interesting and powerful ways, such as the "god helmet" so called.
I'll believe live mammoths are real when I see a fresh dead body of one. Kind of like Sasquatch. There is a reason why our Osage tribe had to switch away from Ni-ta (literally, "Water meat", our word for elephants/mammoths) to Elk and Deer, then later to bison. But they recognized elephants immediately when the circuses brought them. And stories about them talk about how loud they were, which sounds consistent with pretty recent knowledge of them in northeastern USA. So yeah, I'd love to see them wandering around for real!
If they existed I would rather see a live one rather than a “fresh dead” one. People have trapped elephants so I don’t think it would be an impossible feat to trap one.
@@FruitandNutStandsdon't think it would. Shouldn't be too hard for a very hard 20-40 year old man hunt and kill a mammoth with one high powered rifle or sniper. The young man or older man. If skilled men as bart something his name hunted tigers alone in Yukon Canada. I don't have belief. I know a single adult male could possibly kill if he's not killed first kill and work in the mammoth ton body. There's something evil with the Sasquatch so I don't think it's body will ever be physically caught in the hands of any mere human mortal easily wounded. But mammoths are different possibly with common sense to fear the sin of gluttony from humans to hunt and kill for sport not eating the meat.
I love Wooly Mammoths and Mastodons 🦣🦣
Great video man!!
Neither your channel or Truth's channel ever fail to produce a video that keeps me engaged. Great work.
Appreciate that, thank you.
@@wildworld6264can you make video exposing Forrest Galante?

Nothing quite like opening my RUclips app, and seeing that beautiful blue border around that thumbnail. Hell yes :)
I loved the video. Thanks for your reasoned approached to this topic.
Glad you enjoyed it!
The woolly mammoths closest living relative is the asian elephant not the african elephant.
If I remember correctly, I think Asian elephants are more closely related to mammoths than they are to African elephants.
Depends on what you go by? Based on the observation, then yes its the asian elephant. Based on dna their more closely related to the african elephant. But the study I am basing it on is about 20 years old, so maybe something has changed?
True
For those interested in living mammoths there's a book deries by Stephen Baxter called the "Behemoth Trilogy". It's a Watership Down kind if story with it's animals characters, still act like animals but the added bonus of a culture and even a religion for the mammoths.
The first book "Silverhair" follows the titilar character, a female mammoth struggling to survive in the late 20th century on her isolated island home.
2nd book "Longtusk" is a prequel story that follows the exploits of the titular character during the Ice Age who actions were so grand his story is still remembered even by the cast of the first book.
The third and final book "Icebones" I'm not going to spoil anything because the setting of this story itself is beyond wild.
The trilogy is very good though it is tricky for one to get a copy of the books these days.
Omg that's so interesting, thank you
@@alienqueen8711 My pleasure.
If you google the books, it looks like they are still available
An isolated population of mammoths, if reduced to a point of inter breeding they would soon not be a viable species. Don't you think ?
I don't know. The royals are still around and are inbred
Great content, and great interpretations of the stories of sightings. Thank you!
You are giving the Smithsonian wayyyy too much credit. They hide everything!
In the movie Indiana Jones Raiders of the Lost Ark, towards the end of the movie they had shot of a large room where everything was stored. It was the impression based on other peoples own experience going down to see where many things were kept. And yes, while ILM and its magic made the room to appear enormous for the shot, we really don’t know how many rooms, or floors underground they have, or if they destroyed any other evidence they don’t want us to see.
But thats ok, by the time you reach my age you will start to put the pieces together that what they tell us, and what we find out if we’re paying attention enough, that it doesn’t add up in the frontal lobe.
Oh like giants, they hide all of the bones that they find. It doesn't fit their evolution lies.
The crate with the Ark was supposedly in a crate with US Government markings, placed in a Government warehouse, not the Smithsonian.
Here’s just a thought, what if, like ghosts, echoes from the past of animals long gone, thru some cosmic force, can sometimes appear? Maybe they’re ghosts too. Maybe it’s peering thru a portal of time. I do believe credible people when they allege to see them, maybe there’s an explanation we’re not thinking of because it’s outside the realm of what most think to be possible. Just an idea. Love your channel so much brother, can’t wait to see you hit 100K subs. You deserve million’s frankly. God speed mate
My mom had some experiences like that, and she knew that they were like nonphysical memories. She also said that her intuitive abilities and experiences tended to be stronger in CA than in the northeast. Different areas have different magnetic field strengths, and we know that magnetic fields can very much influence the human brain and perception, via things like the "god helmet" which uses weak, rotating magnetic fields around the head to induce alleged hallucinations (the other alternative is that it simply helps to open up a person to nonphysical perception, sort of like a magnetic version of DMT, which may do similar).
Problem with these early accounts is they could easily have been describing dead remains
Louis L'Amour had journals from very early Hudson Bay Company factors who joined natives to successfully hunt mammoths in what is now far northern Quebec in the early days of the company. He also had written accounts from the earliest Europeans to visit the Wyoming region that natives claimed to have killed mammoths there withing only a few generation. Maybe 1300-1400's.
Love your work my friend
I don’t know if you’re looking for video recommendations but you should do the topic “how big does it get alligator snapping turtle” there are a lot of stories about giants and some documented so it would be cool to see what you find. Big fan keep up the great work
I’d guess 250 to 300 lbs. They’ll continue to grow as long as there is plenty of food to support their size, so that’s my guess the metabolism of the turtle being the limiting factor. My guess as someone who has caught and eaten one before. Taste like chicken, watch out for the head, even after the turtle is dead.
I`ve seen an 86lb one. We weighed it. Very dangerous, intelligent creatures. I do know they can get much much larger. So can alligators. Lots of strange water creature sightings here in Louisiana. I`ve seen several things I cannot explain.
There are old stories of really outsized turtles popping up long ago. Also giant catfish, nevermind the divers' tales who have seen something around large dams, there are stories of huge catfish surfacing in waters that were severely disturbed by cannon fire in Civil War battles.
@@michaeljarvis5489the more I learn about fresh water habits the more I like pools.
These videos always hook me in, I really find these creatures interesting and even the movie Ice Age was my first introduction of many animals that are now extinct (mainly the first movie) but also I remember seeing a video about all these stories from indigenous tribes about mammoth (only unsure if it was from actual true tribes but the stories where very interesting like seeing mammoth as scary night monster than just hairy elephants walking around, but also humans hunted them down so I might be just that) great video keep it up 👍
My first question would be, "Would a 16th century Cossack actually know what an elephant looked like beyond being huge?
A musk ox, for example, may have been, to an outsider, hairy and elephantine.
RUSSIA HAS ANCIENT TIES TO THE ASIAN CULTURES.
THEY ARE ORIGONALLY FROM THE MIDDLE EAST.
IF YOU LOOK AT Their traditional costumes and head coverings, you can readily identify the styles similarity to Tirkish helmets. And yes they were familiar with eliphants, they were used in battle and moving armies threw the snow covered mountain passes.
Alixander the Great, used Asain eliphants.
I remember hearing how so many of them died falling off cliff, and sliding on the stamped down snow.
Like a car on black ice.
Musk ox. Lack tusks. Are not that big. They are a type of goats. Easily distinguishable even from a modest distance.
I wonder if elephants were introduced into a cold environment if they would grow hair like a mammoth. Similar to what happens when hogs go feral.
Let's trow you out there and see if you grow hair. If so, then we can try with an elephant.
Maybe but it would take like 10,000 years
If they survive it long enough for mutations to start showing up.
@@andyhackett1104maybe even longer.
What a great thought to wonder!
Mastodons would feed in the forests and most people wouldn’t know the difference upon a chance encounter. Could be mastodons instead of mammoths
I believe that mastodons have pretty different body shapes.
@@sanjivjhangiani3243 they do but I think most people wouldn’t be able to see a mastodon and know it wasn’t a mammoth without having a mammoth to compare the differences to side by side.
There is actually a huge noticeable difference between the 2. Mastodon didn't have thick hair covering its body a shorter trunk. And not quite as big as a mammoth. As well as the tusk are shorter and more than 2.
I checked to see if you had any new uploads literally two hours ago, it's like magic!
really good job. Thank you.
We need a video of Alleged Dinosaur(In-General) Sightings
That’d be fun
Yeah no, that’s stupid, if you wanna find a dinosaur just go birdwatching
@@mrdonut9628 exactly
Bro the congo basin is theorised to house some extinct species, look it up
Crocs and gators are dinosaurs
You live in a house and speak of the wild
Let's do the math... We already know how to clone animals, so the R&D to figure out how to clone mammoths wouldn't be too significant. Let's say it costs $100,000,000 to get to the point where we could clone a mammoth. Then once we got there it cost approximately $1,000,000 to clone each one. You could then (if you wanted to) recoup your investment by selling the opportunity to hunt a mammoth for $10,000,000 each.
But why would you? There's a Nobel prize awaiting you, so why keep it a secret?
Very good work
Thank you so much 😀
My uncle who owns a couple different mines up in Alaska has fossilized mammoth tusk and a half a leg bone of some kind it’s really amazing to see in real life I have only seen pictures but they’re the real deal
Admiral Byrd did a radio or TV interview whereas he flew over the North Pole, and that it was green with lush valleys, with herds of Mammoth running and grazing.
Lies or delusion?
@@jjr2568 idk a part of me hopes that is true. Lol
@@BILLYTHEBATCLEMENTS1 sure you do lol
Yes he did many trips over outer lands Antarctica then they announced the Antarctica treaty nobody can explore..
There are just millions upon millions of unexplored land towards Northern Canada. And all over the world. I'd say whoever can't keep an open mind to these sightings and reoccurrence must have a big dump in their pants.
Remember in The Chronicles of Narnia when many creatures had to go into hiding
that would be a great monsterquest episode talking that mammoths that escaped before the plan on resurrecting them 3 years later
Love these long videos ❤
Glad you like them!
It's early morning over here, so I had something interesting to watch at breakfast. Thank you!
Bringing back mammoths should be the lowest on mankind's list of literally burning issues...
Yh good stuff about this subject lol,just started watching a few minutes ago.its only 12:50am where I am lol,Ohio, USA 😁✌️🥃🤟
I hope you had an entertaining breakfast 😊
@@wildworld6264 Indeed it was, thank you.
Seriously now, I do agree with you. People must've stumbled across mammoth remains and, since they look so... well, fresh, must've thought the animal had died recently.
@@alinapopescu872 Yeah, it makes sense. If I was in the same position, I probably would have thought the same.
I was up in the wilderness some time ago and came across a bigfoot riding a mammoth. I followed and took pictures along the way. I made sure to also photograph the foot prints in the mud. After about 1/2 mile, the animals entered a wating UFO. The UFO took off with them still inside. I didnt care, i had photograghic evidence. When i was hiking out, i stopped to rest on a log. I set my camera down, and before i knew it, something resembling a thylacine snatched my camera and ran away. He ran one way, and i the other.
🤦
Beautiful nature photos!! ❤ I like the subject too.
Could mammoths still survive in the remote Taiga *forest?*
You answered your own question. These are Woolly Mammoth. Not Mastodon. So no, they need grasslands.
Could they have adapted to a more omnivore lifestyle? There are cases where cows f.e. ate a small chicken, probably because of malnutrition.
Mamoths could easily crossed the bering straights into Alaska.
Its,so stupid how men see a rare animal, and their first thought is KILL IT !
Thank you
Thank you for watching!
Sorry as a person who grew up on a farm in Africa active in hunting I don't believe it
An elephant is such a large animal that it can't exist for years unseen unless on a remote island somewhere
What would they be eating in Siberia
@NewSonRising2024the patterson gilm film 1967 shows a clear video of Bigfoot way before videos and photos could be faked but of course it can be dismissed as a guy in a gorilla suit. Now a clear video or photo of a mammoth in the 1970s couldnt be dismissed by skeptics. A clear photo or video of a mammoth nowadays can be faked.
They would be eating Siberians.LOL
What I'm taking from this is there are no mammoths, but possibly an unknown species of giant underground rat. And obviously the reason we haven't found them is because they are underground, industriously digging subway systems and sewers that humans then find and use for new purposes.
Lay off the meth pipe
The giant ground sloth that went extinct around the same time as mammoths do dig holes in the ground, they found some recently in Brazil
Do they take in certain species of amphibians as well, like tarantulas keeping small frogs in a symbiotic relationship?
All nature has bent under the human yolks. I've found alligator burrows truly mammoth sized. Ever hear of 60 degree cuts? Not machine GATOR
Here’s a great question: how do you actually “prove” a species has gone extinct? Well, you can’t, of course. What scientists should say that’s actually logically correct: “We have strong evidence the Wooly Mammoth has gone extinct.” Even my Logic 120 professor from a quarter century ago would agree with this.
very well presented, I was expecting UnchartedX
Elephants are very intelligent with astoundingly excellent memory retention - so one would also assume that Mammoths were/are also intelligent with really excellent memories. I believe that a herd in a super remote region or an island comprising over a million acres say with tree cover, would stand a strong chance of surviving & even adapting to their environment especially if that environment only went through very gradual climactic change. That they would avoid humans is understandable since it’s likely any interaction with humans led to attack & possibly death to a family member. And even if the interaction occurred long ago, those Mammoths would pass that knowledge on to successive younger generations. Avoid humans! They’re dangerous!
Remember the Gorilla who were thought to be legends & myths, until they were ‘Discovered’ living in the Jungles in the Congo in the 1920’s , I believe? ❤. I. Think it’s possible. But I hope all you hunters out there think I’m loopy or just full of crap. 😏 some beautiful living beings should be left alone & given freedom to live. Something we all want desperately. Yes?
Admiral Byrd also flew over the north pole and wrote a book about that as well as being the admiral in charge of a huge flotilla of naval ships that went to Antarctica because they thought the Germans had established a base there.
Love the intro. Your stuff keeps getting better. Mammoth's are an interesting case. I'm by no means an expert on them, I imagine them going extinct was because of a multitude of small reasons that, together, had a big impact. It never ceases to surprise me how often people will fake stories about an "extinct" animal they saw. Great video as always pal. Gonna give Truths video a look.
Much appreciated. I'm certainly no expert either, but a multitude of reasons contributing to their extinction certainly sounds plausible.
That was good. You made some very good deductions.
Liked and subbed... although I hate that word.
I mean they were still around when the Egyptians were building the pyramids
Its literally bigger than a barn door. How can you not find it if there are multi thousand kilograms of meat stampeding local fauna.
Thanks
I've wanted to do a spoof TV series like "Finding Sasquatch" but looking for mammoths across the plains of North and South Dakota, claiming to find footprints etc... it'd be funny af
Its Brûz the Chopper coming out from the middle earth as an assassinating troll from Olog-Hai😂😂😂
I'd love an infinity battery drone that could just fly over these areas, scanning.
Mate we have satalites
How about a blimp?
Okay off topic but what song is playing at 0:59 I recognise it but can’t think where from?
Yes, back 100-ish BC but when was the most recent? Some old newspaper articles from Alaska cited them very much more recently. Neat to see them in "Planet Earth 3" wouldn't it?
Slight aside, but I often wonder if some lab somewhere has been dabbling with frozen mammoth DNA & elephants.
Or even Neanderthal/Denisovan DNA with modern stem cells
My Dad grew up in Michigan and had a lot of Native American friends growing up. His friends grandparents would tell them stories of their ancestors hunting Mammoths. They were around a lot longer then what people want to think
indeed
We are told many creatures are extinct. Yet we continue to find them alive and well.
Not true, go find me a pet Tyrannosaurus then 😂
@@ghostshirt1984 inept comment.
Have you ever heard that Wooly mammoths lived in tropical environments? Hair cooled them. So much has been hidden from us. We have to dig deep in ancient writings to get a picture of the truth. Ive read that the North pole used to be tropical before flash frozen when poles shifted. Interesting stuff. Thank for the video
They as far is I’m aware did not tho they’re relatives the Colombian Mammoth and they’re older African cousins did live in tropical environments tho they were probably hairless…
I believe mammoths were still alive until the end of the mini Ice age possible up to the middle ages.
BABE WAKE UP!!! WILD WORLD POSTED A NEW VIDEO!!!
They are in Antarctica, Admiral Byrd saw them. Absolutely true
Amur tigers live in areas FAR more populated than the taiga region. Mastodon was not a steppe animal but forest like forest elephant in Africa and India.
And?
Not many elephants need to shave regularly
The ancient Chinese reports may have refer to surviving Palaeoloxodon. We may never know how hairy this genus was, especially when living at such latitudes. Art works from the Shang and Zhou dynasties all depict elephants with two 'fingers' on the tip of their trunk (whereas the surviving Indian Elephant only have one 'finger'). Found Mammoth trunks also have two "fingers"...
FYI Hammerson Peter's Channel on this platform covers this topic well in relation to Mammoths in Canada. We are the only other country than Russia that has huge vast forest areas still largely inaccessible to human activity. Nahanni National Park in the Northwest Territories in Canada is the locus for these accounts.
I dont really think Mammoths are around today, but its totally plausible they could have been around a couple of hundred years ago. Just Imagine how empty Alaska, nothern Canada or Siberia must have been 500 years ago. There is not much going on there today, back then it was a total wilderness.
The behavior a creature like a mammoth would need, in order to remain undiscovered, is extreme. Rabbits scurrying from cover to cover, hiding under bushes and trees, and living in burrows, that's just natural. Mammoths doing this... well, that's just sad. Certainly, if there's a mammoth population that's sufficiently timid and shy to remain hidden, that answers the question of whether human hunting was severe enough to threaten the species; nothing but the most severe persecution, the kind that can only be done by humans, could turn majestic elephants into little more than angst ridden rodents.
Oh... Now I'm depressed...
I saw a Prehistoric Mammoth 🦣 with a Extra Large Sasquatch 🐒 riding on its back.
Did he call them the "Stroking-off family"???
It is said, Mammoth, not Mammos.
Not all Mammoth did fall over at the same time and dropped dead. I do believe that there are still some of them. Russia is huge and exceeds into China. So this particular region is not even to explore, dangerous at least.
The problem is Mammoths just like all their modern relatives are ecosystem engineers, they fundamentally shape the ecosystem around them that’s why it’s called the Mammoth steppe so any region they lived in would likely be very different than what is seen now also it’s more likely that Mastodons survived as they were forest dwellers unlike Mammoths which preferred open terrain.
I’m pretty open to them having hung on till within the last 1000yrs but don’t think they’re hiding somewhere in the north given that the places they could survive are open and visible, would be awesome but they’d probably be tiny and extremely inbred 😔
I do find it interesting when there’s reference to reddish hair that’s noted before the more recent mummy’s like Lyuba that have hair remaining were found though. Maybe there were earlier mummy’s that were found and that detail worked its way into oral history from there.
Nice vid 👌
I visited Lyuba at Sydney museum in 2018 even though she's not the youngest she's supposed to be the best preserved due to falling an a mud pit as a young pup, only missing an ear as it was chewed off by a Siberian dog after she was dug up
If there was a verified sighting of a mammoth out there, there would be hundreds of hunters going after the ivory which looks like it would yield 3-4 times what the modern day african elephant does.
I’m confused I thought the best frozen mammoth was found in Siberia and when they checked the stomach contents found plants only found in tropical environments ? From memory the scientists concluded it had been flash frozen because it still had food in its mouth and stomach that hadn’t been digested. Please correct me if I’m wrong thx
Randall Carlson told Joe Rogan a story on his podcast. Not sure of it's origins myself. He retold a story where someone supposedly pulled mammoth remains from the thawing tundra or ice. When disecting the remains, they discovered fresh flowering greenery in it's stomach. The plants had not been in the stomach very long at all to be in their condition, and that would mean the animals' body temperature would had to have dropped so quickly it's hard to comprehend. They brought out a modern expert on the commercial flash freezing of food. The best theory is that whatever happened to that particular mammoth, it was killed and frozen solid within a few hours at most. What causes a climate to shift from fresh flowering greenery to flash freezing a multi-thousand pound mammal in that time period?
@@Buletspunge555 thx that’s where I probably heard it. My uneducated guess would be a sudden pole shift it also explains a number of other mysteries such as how the peoples of Easter island shared similarities with other cultures thousands of miles away that there was some sort of land bridge and the Easter island we see is just the top of a larger continent prior to the pole shift that also caused massive flooding that also partially covered there huge statues. I think Randall will eventually be proven right and earths history is a lot more wilder than anyone could guess andI hope I’m around to find out.
@twoheadedtasmanian1481 interestingly enough, I went looking for explanations to the conundrum of a flash frozen mammoth. What I came up with is: Avalanche victim. So simple it wasn't even on my radar. There is a neat little video on the topic if you search RUclips.
@@Buletspunge555 yeah seen that video but it can’t explain how there could have been tropical plants in a sub tropic area that was cold enough for enough snow to fall to cause an avalanche. I’m pretty sure the plants found in the mouth and stomach couldn’t grow in a cold climate. Also an animal the size of the mammoth would have needed huge amounts of plant food per day just to survive let alone mate and prosper and that’s just not possible in a cold climate. I’m only using a bit of common sense but the amount of food available would have been hard to keep alive something the size of the mammoth let alone a herd of them just my thoughts though
The reason the Tigre forests are there is because they replaced the grasslands that mammoths and Rhinos and the the wild horses, donkeys and gazelles use to eat. Then of course there are all the hungry humans that will eat there way from one place to another no problem.
Lots of things mega rich do that we don't know about
Man I feel bad for him getting hate
This is the third account of I've heard of someone seeing a Mammoth. None of them knew each other, obviously. They're seeing something. I believe this could be true.
There is an Ancient Breed Zoo and Museum in France, with huge odd looking Ox, plus other weird animals (no Mammoths yet!).
Elephants are large placental mammals that constitute the family Elephantidae, they are the only extant family of the order Proboscidea, elephants were a far more diverse family, but now, there are only eight extant species under two genera and the only two elephant genera alive today are Loxodonta (African Elephants) with two extant species being the African Bush Elephant (Loxodonta africana) and the African Forest Elephant (Loxodonta cyclotis) and Elephas (Asiatic Elephants) with six extant species being the Indian Elephant (Elephas indicus), the Sri Lanka Elephant (Elephas maximus), the Bangladeshi Elephant (Elephas bangladeshiensis), the Indochinese Elephant (Elephas vietnamensis), the Sumatran Elephant (Elephas sumatrensis), and the Bornean Elephant (Elephas borneensis)
There were many extinct elephant species that many were not just extinct species of african elephant or asiatic elephant, there were also extinct elephant species in different genera as well
Especially extinct elephants that are in the only living elephant subfamily, which is the subfamily Elephantinae
The four-tusked elephants (genus Primelephas) are an extinct elephant genus with two known species: the Maglio's Four-Tusked Elephant (Primelephas gomphotherioides) and the Coppens's Four-Tusked Elephant (Primelephas korotorensis)
The african elephants (genus Loxodonta) were not only constituted by two living species, but six other extinct species were also known, which include the African Scrub Elephant (Loxodonta cookei), the African River Elephant (Loxodonta expotata), the African Desert Elephant (Loxodonta atlantica), the African Grass Elephant (Loxodonta adaurora), the African Marsh Elephant (Loxodonta kararae), and the African Mountain Elephant (Loxodonta pharaohensis)
The straight-tusked elephants (genus Palaeoloxodon) are an extinct elephant genus with sixteen recognized species, which include the Dietrich's Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon recki), the Maglio's Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon ekorensis), the Pomel's Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon iolensis), the Garutt's Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon mammontoides), the Occidental Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon antiquus), the Bate's Lesser Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon cypriotes), the Xylophagou Lesser Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon xylophagou), the Tilos Lesser Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon tiliensis), the Naxos Lesser Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon lomolinoi), the Crete Lesser Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon creutzburgi), the Adams' Lesser Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon mnaidriensis), the Busk's Lesser Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon falconeri), the Turkmenian Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon turkmenicus), the Indian Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon namadicus), the Chinese Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon huaihoensis), and the Japanese Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon naumanni)
The asiatic elephants (genus Elephas) were not only constituted by six living species, but twelve other extinct species were also known, which include the Jordan Elephant (Elephas jordanensis), the Arabian Elephant (Elephas arabicus), the Turkish Elephant (Elephas turcicus), the Caucasian Elephant (Elephas caucasicus), the Syrian Elephant (Elephas asurus), the Chinese Elephant (Elephas rubridens), the Falconer's Elephant (Elephas hysudricus), the Flat-Headed Elephant (Elephas platycephalus), the Javan Elephant (Elephas sondaicus), the Blora Elephant (Elephas hysudrindicus), the Beyer's Elephant (Elephas beyeri), and the Sulawesi Dwarf Elephant (Elephas celebensis)
The mammoths (genus Mammuthus) are an extinct elephant genus with twelve recognized species, which include the Barbary Mammoth (Mammuthus africanavus), the Cape Mammoth (Mammuthus subplanifrons), the Sardinian Mammoth (Mammuthus lamarmorai), the Cretan Dwarf Mammoth (Mammuthus creticus), the Southern Mammoth (Mammuthus meridionalis), the Romanian Mammoth (Mammuthus rumanus), the Woolly Mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius), the Steppe Mammoth (Mammuthus trogontherii), the Jefferson's Mammoth (Mammuthus jeffersonii), the Columbian Mammoth (Mammuthus columbi), the Imperial Mammoth (Mammuthus imperator), and the Channel Island Mammoth (Mammuthus exilis)
Well mammoths, as far as we know, were grasers- that's why the St. Paul and Wrangell Island mammoths lasted longer, they were still living in northern places with continuous ecologies. I really want to believe that they are still here, but unfortunately the evidence suggests that we wiped out the last of them.
The mammoths being attracted to fire detail at 8:00 is pretty interesting. Seems like a detail that could be true.
Because animals in general are attracted to fire? Or wait that is backwards, animals in general avoid fire. Seems like a detail someone made up as a good part of a story.
@supernus8684 it's from a made up story, but it could be true. Elephants sometimes stamp out fires, which is probably where it comes from. I'm more interested I'm the subjects' actual behaviors than the behaviors of journos.
It’s certainly an interesting detail. In Cuba in the zapata swamps we’re the critically endangered and terrestrial adapt Cuban crocodile currently resides. Cuban conservationist have said the Cuban crocodile have walked up to a campfire and was chilling near it, quite cool. Noted for being very inquisitive and for pack hunting behavior which has been reported.
@@jointcerulean3350those are cold-blooded, so it makes sense for it to seek warmth.
During WW2 America military pilots flying over Siberia to deliver fighter planes to Russia to be used in repelling the Nazi attack reported seeing Mammoths occasionally. SRM
There was a high definition recent photo of a Mammoth on 'RUclips'. Not very big about 6' high with chestnut brown hair. There is also moving film taken by a German POW from Stalingrad of the animal.
They say Yukon, Canada!!!
But you didn't hear it from me! 😁
The Coelecath was extinct until found off of Africa. The Nautilus was extinct until found. There's no reason to believe that mammoths aren't still out there, same with the Tasmanian wolf. Things hide, it's been that way since the flood of Noah's time. It's self defense to hide from humans.
Mammoth burgers sounds awesome
To answer the click bait question, yes, I saw Bigfoot riding a mammoth yesterday.
An excellent video.
Remains of Colombian mammoths found near Castroville California were found to have fur the same color as an Irish setter.
I could see the Arctic being a refugium for a relict group of mammoths. Large parts of the area are quite remote and would prove to be a great area for mammoths to hide out. They were supposed to have gone extinct 4,000 years ago--not all that long ago in geological terms. But there have been no recent credible sightings as far as I know. So for now, I consider them to be extinct.
They are very difficult to spot when they are up in the trees.
Bro one video on beast of gevaudan
I saw one the other day! The strange thing was, Bigfoot was riding it!
Wes is a Finno-Ugric tribe in the Western part of so-called ruzzian federation. Wes, Chud, Merya are the moscovian tribes and they were always considered by the European authors as barbarians since Herodotus. The father of history Herodotus called them androfagi 'human-eaters', cannibals. So the depiction of 'a wully creature with tusks' could be some kind of a traditional cloth of shaman, since moscovians turned from paganism only after 1850s. Lands around that time moscovia were inhabited by those, who traditionally kept to use 'huts-on-chicken-legs' as a burial sites and in harsh winters they ate those bodies. It is easily checked.
