Wooly Mammoth This is located at the Mammoth Site in Hot Springs, South Dakota. It is an active, educational dig site. This is nearly an entire skeleton of a wooly mammoth. |
TeethThe front bones are the jaws. At the rear of the jaws are the teeth - they look like the sneaker treads. Behind is a tusk. |
