A team of Russian scientists has challenged the theory that the
woolly
mammoths became
extinct 10,000 years ago at the end of the Ice Age. The scientists have reported that the
beasts may have survived until 2000 B.C. on an island off the coast of Siberia, where
researchers uncovered 29 fossilized woolly mammoth teeth ranging in age from 4,000 to
7,000 years. The question to be asked now is, how did these prehistoric pachyderms survive
in their island environment? One possibility is that they adapted to their confined
surroundings by decreasing their bulk. This theory is based on their smaller tooth size, which
has led scientists to believe that they were only 6 feet tall at the shoulder compared with 10
feet of their full-sized
counterpart. But would this be enough to enable them to survive
thousands of years beyond that of other mammoths? Researchers are still working to
uncover the reasons for this isolated group's belated disappearance.
