AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful original complete lower jaw tooth of a woolly mammoth with well-preserved roots. A handmade marble stand is included with this tooth.
This tooth was found in Eastern Europe.

The woolly mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius) was an extinct elephant species that lived during the Pleistocene. This mammoth was well adapted to cold climates with its thick coat of long hairs, which ranged from blond and reddish-brown to dark brown and black. They also had a thick layer of fat for extra insulation.

Woolly mammoths were about 2.7 to 3.4 meters tall, comparable to the current African elephant. They lived in herds on the vast mammoth steppe, a cold, dry grassland stretching from Europe to North America.
