It blows my mind just how close humans were to photographing a wild wooly mammoth in the grand scheme of time. It's like showing up to an abandoned campsite and the fire is still smouldering.
The grand scheme of things, is like saying we were close to photographing dinosaurs. If the life of the earth was a 12 month calender, humanoids didn't show up until December 31st, at 11:59pm
@@RU-vidSaysThereCantBeTwoRyans Well out of the history of the known universe this animal just so happened to have lived at the same time humans invented writing.
@@1TakoyakiStore OK...the first member of the hominidae family appear over 5.8million years ago. That's again, like saying we were close to filming dinosaurs
@@RU-vidSaysThereCantBeTwoRyans And it only took them the last 5,000 years to invent writing. This isn't some comparative thing like saying Cleopatra lived closer to the moon landing than she did to King Djoser. Mammoths and the first writing in egypt and Mesopotamia existed simultaneously. If you want another example there's no fossils of mammoths on Wrangell Island. Actual goddamn bones!!!
I have a book here at home that is more than 9 times older than me. The Wrangler Island mammoth bones are around 12 times older than that book. That 17th century book is in time closer to the last prehistoric Madagascar megafauna than to me.
Before Lewis and Clark completed their expedition, Americans could only speculate on what lurked in the uncharted territories beyond the Rocky Mountains. Even Thomas Jefferson, who’d amassed a small library of books on the frontier, was convinced the explorers might have run-ins with mountains of salt, a race of Welsh-speaking Indians and even herds of wooly mammoths and giant ground sloths. The expedition failed to sight any of the long-extinct creatures, but Lewis did describe 178 previously unknown species of plants and 122 new animals including coyotes, mountain beavers and grizzly bears.
@@jakeoutrider7644coyotes were only found in western North America back then but in the last 150 years they have been expanding their range East and south
@@michaelficarro2591yes they did. They discovered it for their people. That's how that works. Do you say native Americans didn't discover anything when they first expanded through the continent? It's not like the continent didn't already exist before then. So who cares about whatever they saw right? Lewis and Clark WERE the first ppl of European descent to make that journey, so they discovered a lot of things that were firsts for THEM. And since they actually wrote books and described species scientifically you can definitely call that "discovering" something.
I NEVER get tired of hearing/reading stories told by indigenous peoples. Thank you greatly for the stories and also the reference to a book I may have to find. It sounds intriguing.
I agree. I've been fortunate enough to spend a few summers at a Pacific NW Coast Salish tribe's reservation, when I was a surfer/bum. I got to know the culture, just a little bit, which was very different from my middle class roots. One of the members in particular, who went by 'Auntie Nan' would visit us and share her stories and her wisdom (weather it not such was actually wise!) in the evenings while we all had a BBQ or a crab boil, etc. I hadn't thought about that time for maybe two decades, but I definitely appreciated the experience, opportunity, etc. One of the members of our (unofficial) seasonal surfer group, Pat, was actually invited to take part in their annual tradition of paddling a traditional seagoing dugout canoe up the coast to visit the Makah tribe/reservation... the rowers are the descendants of some tribal members who once raced the University of Washington crew (rowing) team, and won! What an experience, eh? I am hopeful that, in the Washington and British Columbia coasts, such traditions might be maintained. Unfortunately, though, the language dying, and, as far as I know, only a couple dozen (mostly elderly) people can still speak conversationally. The loss of such languages and other cultural touchstones really breaks my heart, as I came to love that place and the people that have lived there for literally thousands of years. The world changes, sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worse, and that had never really hit me in a personal manner until I spent some significant time where such changes were really observable (hard to ignore!) even to a layperson like myself.
when the blue coats, white man,,were told about b/foot, sabe,,they laughed,,so the indians shut up.. theres a famous cave, where the indians traped & burned, the ''last'', of the giants,, red haired, 6 finger,toes.. for b/foot, sabe,,watch, the facts by how to hunt..
A number of years ago I was at the airport in Seattle and there was a small band of native dressed gentlemen telling folks their ancestral stories. This group supposedly hailed from the area around Crater Lake and thet had stories of the mountain erupting.
Franklin Roosevelt sent an expiration to Alaska to investigate reports of mammoth still living there. The expedition did not find any but did return with weapons they obtained from the Inuit designed for mammoth hunting.
I wonder if they dated the weaponry, a lot of those types of artifacts are passed down generations or even found and restored by other native groups. If it was recent though it would be compelling evidence
@@themotions5967 They were undoubtedly recent (if they were old they would had already rotten), but don’t wrong yourself, the knowledge to create something dies long after the last time it was used, they didn’t needed to be used, the people only needs to believe that they may be using it some day, so they’ll teach their children how to create such thing

When I was a young n my mom flew us into Anchorage Alaska my mom's friend let use there cabin in the spring of 1956 I was 9 n we stayed all summer, mom rented a jeep n we traveled to a few villages a bit north a couple places we camped over night on the tundra that over looked a lake was quite beautiful there weren't many trees where we were heading something's we stopped n fished there were those flys that drive u crazy, uh. My mom wouldn't let me go out of her sight she always had that rifle n a pistol on her for grizzleies anyway I would go along the edge of the different lakes where there was flat rock s n sometimes sand stone there would be these huge round tracks in the stone my mom says they were mammoth tracks n there were some littler ones to, once where the flat rocks lead down to the lake n into the water there were many other tracks but no dinosaur tracks they died out a few million years before, one time we found tusks (8') long sticking out of a hillside after a 3 day rain by the road but we took a few pictures n left, n there were bones scattered along the narrow dirt road, a few elders in a village we were at a week, being a little kid I asked if they had ever seen a mammoth one elder who was may 95 yrs old said there were a small heard in about 1880 he was bout 10 , but the white hunters killed all 7 n took the tusks n meat on there dog sleds n boats they pulled behind, he said he never saw any more after that, but he has heard stories of them over his lift time.
dinosaurs, did not die out millions of yrs ago..ie.. st george & the dragon,,dinosaur,,knights in europe were sent out to slay them.. in india, theres carvings on temples of them,, theres thousands of clay figurines, found, of them, with man hunting them & riding them.. go figure,,history is a lie,,as is the bible..also paintings on cave walls..
I agree... The first post I watched had me expecting just another speculative cryptid channel, but I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and rigor of the research, writing, presentation, etc! This is definitely one of my favorite channels of its genre vis-a-vis cultural history, ethnography, anthropology, etc, with just the right amount of high strangeness from a moderately skeptical perspective, eh? It sits at the intersection of many of my particular interests. Cheers!
I'm from the díné tribe of Northern AZ. My aunt as a kid seen a herd of bison in the winter fog in the 1970s while herding sheep..older family members seen its hoof prints later. it was said it's the spirit of the long departed sacred bison herds. They are still here in spirit..
There are also reports of large hairy “elephants” in the jungles of Vietnam. Consider the vast size of northern Canada and Siberia, and how uninhabited they are. It is entirely plausible that ancient creatures could easily survive in such places, the same for deep jungles. A cave large enough to house the Statue of Liberty and have its own weather patterns was recently found deep in the jungles of Vietnam. If a giant cave can remain undiscovered for thousands of years, why not living creatures that can hide or avoid searchers?
There are already elephants in Vietnam and Asian elephants are pretty hairy when they're young, and the woolly mammoth never ranged as far south as Vietnam. I think it's more likely they would be a population of normal elephants with some weird neotenous mutation.
A cave large enough to house the Statue of Liberty and have its own weather patterns was recently found deep in the jungles of Vietnam. Only the tip of the inner Earth my dude. There are entire civilizations living ""inside"" the earth. In caves that dwarf even that discovery. Admiral Richard E Byrd already discovered the inner world. Its time for the propaganda and lies to end.
@@choptop81 Or. You're making shit up in a void of information. I expect any modern person to be able to tell the difference between an elephant, a baby elephant, and an elephant that is really fucking strange. Its more likely you're filling the information void with nonsense. Because that's how you are trained to think. DO NOT OBSERVE you are trained, instead simply doubt and deny. That is your training, and that is the crime committed against you.
@@tyj9175 Based on what exactly? Filling in an information void with the words of experts? Experts that in reality are fakes, gatekeepers, glow in the dark propagandists. No. Mammoths didn't have any requirement to live in tundra conditions. We've even found the frozen carcasses of them, well preserved, and still no evidence that they would be "unable to survive" in a humid jungle environment.
i remember that episode of northern exposure when the good doctor found a mammoth tusk and painstakingly drug it back to town, and the locals were like "yeah, they turn up from time to time."
There’s a cool story about a big game hunter in the early 1900’s who was hunting a giant grizzly in the Yukon - he instead found and killed what was most likely a short faced bear. Unfortunately, the Smithsonian ended up with the skull and you guessed it- it disappeared! -Edited to say: I heard this story on the Cryptids of the Corn Podcast Season 2 Episode 9, one of the hosts is a biologist so they have a science based look at cryptids, it’s a good show
Unfortunately it was common for newspapers of the late 1800's and early 1900's to end with some fantastical find being sent to the Smithsonian only to later be lost there. The truth of these could range from outright lies to genuine finds such as what happened to the body of Dr Samuel Mudd. Only his skull was ever found in a museum backroom.
They lie. All the time. Constantly. Why would you ever take a super-organism's word at face value? You really believe we aren't living under a One World Government prison planet?
Mammoths existed up until several thousand years ago, which is well within the span of humans. They aren't dinosaurs and were never claimed to be millions of years old. The frozen mammoths are from the end of the last ice age which was quite recent (8-20,000 years old).
@@Rayrard How do you know that? Academics and historians are rarely correct about anything. There are numerous artifacts and ancient sites that prove "our" current timeline is way off. Anyone who tells you they know what happened thousands of years ago is a liar and anyone who believes them is a fool
Thousands? Nah. Try centuries. Paleontology, archeology, and anthropology are all products of propaganda. Any accurate observations or descriptions provided by those propagandists are incidental.
The last Grizzly was shot in the Santa Ana Mountains of Orange County. Redwood trees used to grow on Malibu Creek and Salmon and Steelhead ran up rivers as far south as the Santa Ana river in Orange County back during my grandmothers youth..Great stories most would not believe as possible these days.
You've done videos about the big hairy men, and now you've done a video on the big hairy elephants. Haha. I love it!! Thank you for another awesome video, my friend.
Some historical trivia: When Lewis & Clark were about to set out onto the early American frontier (post Louisianna Purchase) they had a meeting including then President Andrew Jackson 1801. Outright he told them if they came across wholly mammoth he wanted a letter forthwith. Apparently prior Spanish explorers recorded that they did see what could only be wholly mammoth. That's only 450 years ago versus about 10,000 years. These are recorded facts. So what do we not know??
WE DON'T KNOW THE TRUTH BECAUSE WW2 ERASED HISTORY AND REPLACED IT WITH DISGUSTING PROPAGANDA. Admiral Richard E. Byrd wrote all about his explorations. Everything he said is fact. Because there is no other reasonable explanation. The global government is evil, and they are liars!
Thomas Jefferson was the president who commissioned the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Andrew Jackson was not president until 1829 - 1837, but your quote sounds like something he would say.
I have dug a few tusks myself in my younger years while gold mining in Alaska interior. Only 1/20th of Alaska has had man walk its valleys and tundra's. The Brooks range alone is mostly untouched or unseen except from Air.

Dating 8 think poop. Mammoths were around till few thousands of years ago and not the pygmy mammoths of wrangle island. And the island prince Edward island had mammoths not that long ago
The deadliest catch talked about it. Not to scientists have found Trace's of I mammoth dung .this new techniques like study poop and other things are showing mammoths went exstinc just few thousand years ago. Just Google it
So much of Canada is unsettled that it's easy to believe something like a mammoth could still be living up north. Heck, I tend to believe more in Canadian sasquatch stories, too!
My partner once flew by helicopter into an extremely remote area of northern BC for work, and they came upon a whole forest of petrified wood. The geologist they were with was quite certain no one even knew of this location, and he estimated the forest to have been around 30 million years old. Just an interesting anecdote about how little we really know about this vast land.
@jasmineryce217 that's nothing compared to how deep our oceans is and only 5% of it is only explored. There's so many mysterious stuff yet to be discovered.
Problem is, and most folk don't realize this, but mammoths were not adapted to extreme cold. They lived in a time when Alaska and Siberia had a more moderate climate.
My Dad from ALBERTA CANADA hauled some yellow equipment up to a Gold Miner in the YUKON back in the 1980s and the old guy had Mammoth Tusks that he dug up on his Gold Mine... He gave my Dad a chunk of a Tusk about 2ft long...
Hey I grew up there! The last living native Tagish speaker was one of my elementary school teachers. She never shared her language, she taught us Tlingit instead. I didn't even know she was a native Tagish speaker until after her death.
I think that the consistency and veracity of oral traditions are commonly underrated by modern people who may associate such with simple 'storytelling', like it's analogous to a game of 'telephone', eh? In truth, however, its generally understood (as far as my reading has taken me) that such traditions were/are vastly more important to a culture that has no other way to record and transmit information and history than through storytelling. The members of a group/civilization that were tasked with remembering and perpetuating those important parts of a people's culture generally held an important, even critical, position in their societies. Our modern perspective on, and the connotation of, 'stories' just doesn't really apply. I'm not a professional or expert about that subject (I generally have only studied relatively modern history in any depth) but, from what I do know, it makes a lot of sense, and I haven't seen anything to contradict that perspective. Like anything else about civilizations other than one's own, its important that one tries to check their biases at the door as they enter into the study of such...which, in this case, perhaps lends some credibility to the traditions of people's interactions with now-extinct species. Mammoths in particular would be pretty memorable, right? (I sure think so! 😯) Thoughts?
Nail on the head OP. Modern atheist Jews are liars and have completely infiltrated academia. That's why they make up such clever lies like "oral traditions are like a game of telephone, and don't you dare pay any mind to all the evidence disproving this!"
I think you're right. People are too quick to interpret evidence through the lens of pre-conceived ideas, rather than keeping an open mind and letting the evidence shape the idea. Just because popular opinion says that mammoths die out in the stone age doesn't prove that they did. If the Native American/Indigenous Canadian folktales say that they hunted mammoths within the past few hundred years, who are we to say that they didn't? We weren't there.
@@nightjarproductions Yeah... that reminds me of the Aurochs, the wild ancestor of modern cattle, that was believed to be extinct for centuries, when, in the 17th century, a single female was discovered in the forests of (I think) Poland. (And that's nothing compared to the Coelacanth, the ancient fish that had been assumed to be extinct since the end of the Cretaceous (66 million years!), until, in 1938, it was discovered that people in east Aftica had always been catching/eating them!) The term for a supposedly extinct species that is still extant (or was for a long time after its supposed extinction) is a 'Lazarus Taxon', and I suspect Mammoth may have lived quite a bit longer than what is generally accepted, perhaps in a single isolated popularion, which, after the ice retreated, wouldn't have been as easily preserved as the many thousands that are thought to be intombed in the permafrost in Siberia, etc... (the question is, how long? A few hundred more years, or...?) Cheers! (Edit: Tasmanian Tiger? I doubt they're still around, but it would be great if they are!)

I have come across these stories and stories of probiscideans in South America before. There is something very captivating about them. Thanks for sharing.
Scientists use Indigenous stories of great earthquakes and floods to gain information about past disasters in the Pacific Northwest, some of them dating back almost 10,000 years. I have no doubt that memories of mammoths are also connected to experience. Just in the 2018 geologists found what is probably Canada''s largest cave not that far from where I live. There are still things we haven't seen and don't know, but the stories of the people who've lived here for thousands of years reveal they have seen things we have trouble imagining. Cool video.
Before the internet was scrubbed. There was a video from long time ago. It clearly showed a Mammoth alive and well. It approached cautiously and then turned and ran.
Wished I'd have had the presence of mind as a young teen in the early 2000's to hunt for things like this online. I have a feeling there was so much to find and learn that Now just isn't accessible anymore.
@@kes9612 I've seen many such things over the years. Saved all I could but it all disappeared regardless. This latest TikTok bill and now the fake leaker arrest will lock down everything and usher in state sponsored Skynet. I've been waiting for this since terminator. Red Dawn is incoming. We're not being overrun by military age foreign men for no reason. Parachute is too obvious.
I am shocked they even allowed that much to leak. Imagine if someone had smuggled out a Sasquatch carcass. Imagine how quickly all those creeps in the background would kill the leaker and recover the body.
@@Moe_Posting_Chad because Hammerson said it was. Jack London, famous author, apparently wrote it in a book of fictional short stories. Re-listen to 3:27.
Nahanni Reserve is such a fascinating place to me. It is such a massive area located in North America, and is largely unexplored to this very day. Not to mention the amount of terrifying stories and how people disappear without a trace, or are found with their heads missing. The story about the woman who "went crazy" and ran off into the wilderness never to be found is crazy. The group of people were up there on "vacation" or something back in the early 1900's, and this guys sister just ran off into the night or something. They followed her tracks for something like 6 days, finding peices of torn clothing here and there, then the trail comes to the rock face of a cliff that was something like 200-500 feet high, almost like the woman started climbing up the cliff. One of the Indian trackers walked up and around the large cliff face and arrived to the spot up top and saw that the tracks kept going, as if she climbed up the mountain after running for days on end, not stopping for rest, food, water, and then climbed up a mountain face bare ass naked. Not to mention doing all of that while being in one of the most hostile environments on the planet. Apparently after they all went back to Fort Simpson and reported the story to the proper authorities, a trapper who was up in that area at the same time these people were there read the story in the paper and remembered being woken up to the sound of rocks tumbling down the rockslide across the river that he was camped next to, and saw a "naked woman, pale as snow, climbing up the side of the mountain with a deranged grimace or smile on her face". The guy played it off as a very vivid dream or something, but that woman was never heard from or seen again. The amount of crazy things that have happened and have been seen up there is SO interesting to me. I seriously want to make my way up there when I'm close to death, and then one night after I've been camping or exploring in the valley of the headless men, I'll be able to say "HA! I friggin knew it! I KNEW it!" when either some kind of Sasquatch or a headhunter from some old Troglodyte tribe comes for my head to add to the collection of trophies, lol.
I used to say I'd go skydiving when I was in my 80s so if I died, I'd have had a good run... I think I just replaced "skydiving" with "camping in the Nahanni" lol
I used to live in the Fort St John / Peace River Area inhabited by the Dune-zaa/Beaver. I worked and played in the remote bush around Stewart and Williston Lakes all the time, even getting as far north as Toad River and Muncho Lake on occasion. Crazy to think at one point in perhaps the not so distant past these primordial giants roamed these parts… Excellent video as always Hammerson!
I've always had a reoccurring dream (more like a fever dream nightmare) my whole life about being in a small valley somewhere and seeing a large herd of these guys and always having to stay out of there sight lest they see me and start charging. I wonder sometimes if that's not a memory that has been passed down to me from one of my Native American or European ancestors. 🤔
What kind of detail does this reoccurring dream have? What do they smell like? How hot or cold is it? Are you down wind? What kind of ambient sounds do you hear?
just discovered your channel! i've been looking for a channel like this for so long! Canada has such a rich mythology that's so underappreciated and overshadowed by our neighbour to the south. Thanks for quality videos bud! Take er easy
No photographs of a wild woolly mammoth have been known to exist, yet the stories persist, some of the Indian tales likely handed down from one generation to the next. Glad I found this channel... Thanks for posting! 🤠
A single guy killing a living adult wooly mammoth single-handedly with just an axe seems to be a tall tale, lol. Highly unlikely but a good yarn, thanks for the video. More about the Nahanni Valley please!
the stories of mountain giants are amazing. they are giants 20 to 30 ft tall that live in the deep forests of the north. watch sasquatch chronicles episode 187.
Me: "ohmahgash this video sounds promising! I bet the stories are really cool!" Me, with a cup of hot milk in my bed, about 17 mins in: "Welp, guess we're not sleeping tonight"
if there were mammoths left they would have to eat flesh too. theres not enough nutrients out there for them on veggies alone. theres tons of videos of different farm animals eating other animals.
Indeed. A heavy dose of dramatisation of monsters to fear out in the great beyond there I suspect. ...Although, who knows what a cornered mammoth might do...? Not something I've personally had a chance to observe.
I know David Ingam reported seeing “elephants” exploring what would become the US in the 1500s, alongside otherwise very accurate notes of wildlife and indigenous peoples. Definitely intriguing.
Apparently, he also reported the natives were canibals with canines for teeth, and reported seeing a legendary city of Gold as well as penguins, so I'm not sure he could be trusted when it comes to having seen elephants
I was going to comment that the story of Indians killing mammoths with 4 tusks, 2 of them curving backwards must be true because that type of mammoth was not discovered by scientists until many years later, but you said it for me. If one goes exploring on Google Earth for a while what one finds is vast areas were no humans exist. It is quite possible that a very large animal unknown to science or considered extinct by science still exists today. 😱🤷🏼♀️ Cheers
its also possible to make up a story about a 4 tusked mammoth after its found and say its an old story,, and its allot more possible to believe something might exist than it actually existing ,,cryptids do occasionally get proven real but for the most part we are talking of about more than 100 years ago when at one point a gorrila and a kangaroo were were in the cryptid ranking, today its almost exclusively animals thought to have been extinct in the very recent past of like 20-50 years
The 4 tusk relative of the mammoth are known to academia as a Gomphothere, more commonly found from Mexico south, one was discovered in south western Arizona. People don't realize how tenacious and exploitive fur trappers, especially the french fur trappers were back in the day, they covered alot of ground in the north artic and sub artic supplying a variety of furs for the fur hungry european market from the 16th-18th centuries. Off the California coast on the channel islands, specifically on Santa Rosa & 3 other islands were found a specie of mammoth called pygmy mammoths, being related to & half the size of a full sized Colombian mammoth, estimated at 13k years old, other remains of full sized Colombian mammoths found on the islands date to 80k+ years BP, showing how the mammoth devolved in stature over time to adjust to their shrinking environment The islands were much larger back then making the islands much closer to the mainland before the sea levels rose. Elephants are amazing swimmers,
I remember on Les Strouds bigfoot series, the bigfoot guy Todd Standing saying something about military helicopters coming into a area after a sighting. To me, if they exist, the government(s) know and with their advanced equipment find them, capture them, including any large creature told to be extinct. I would guess a few are kept alive, but others (if more than one) are euthanized for research. A Government has no interest in keeping the public informed unless it's to their benefit.
Woolly Mammoths are known to have been alive on Wrangel Island, off the coast of Siberia, as recently as 2000BCE...relatively close to Alaska and the Yukon...
Sadly they couldn't be alive as of now on said island due to incest,global warming and loss of food,if you look at Wrangel Island you could see that now it's mainly what looks to be mountains,glaciers and pairies.
Thank you, again, mr Peters for all the wonderful lore, legend, and myth, you share 💙 The details of the mammoth sleeping upright leaning against a tree due to it having no joints in its legs remind me of a (if i remember correctly) 18th century description of the swedish moose. It was said to have those traits as well. Also, it was described as being able to cough up boiling hot water if attacked.
apes eat meat, chimpanzees.. they kill there own for territory,,bit like humans.. for sabe, b/foot info,,watch. the facts by how to hunt.. as to mammoths being carnivors,,do they eat humans, or just kill, because there protecting themselves..
23:23 with exception to the 4 tusks that is an exact description of a Mastodon which was a forest dwelling furry elephant that lived in North America the same time as the wooly mammoth.
These legends and tales sound scary, how people uncounted mammoth and the mysterious lands, I like learning about the ancient world but hearing stories from actual tribes makes it more interesting and spooky I’m glad I found this channel too it’s cool
Re: 'Prehistoric pachyderms'... I dig the affectation of appropriate alliteration. Cheers! (Good vid in general, too, as usual.) And... 'preserved in perpetuity by the permafrost'...
Call me dumb but I believe there may be some ice age animals left around. Small mammoth sure, but the waheela has got to be an amphicyon. Could be some cave bear. The Kitani, monkey like animals. There were primates back then that fit the description, I forget their name but like a big lemur. There's bound to be something out there.
to believe is part of human nature and its so much fun when proven right .we all believe in one thing or another, i believe in god ,i don't believe ,i am 100% certain in the existence of a higher power/intelligence that created all and is beyond our comprehension and it laughs at our attempts at boxing it up in one religion or another,, and that we are dumb as a chicken in comparison
I worked in the Yukon. I found the last couple feet of a mammoth tusk which had broken in a landfall near 40-mile. I cleaned it up and gave it to my mother. THe teeth are everywhere, it'd be good to find one whole and not too worn.
Research seems to suggest mammoths survived until at least 4-6000 bc. Both in siberia and a small island of canada/alaska. The stories of native americans are rich with strange "monsters" which can be interpreted as mammoths, pterodactyls etc. And one concern of Thomas Jefferson when he organized the Lewis and Clark expedition into the PNW was native american stories and the possibility of finding mammoths.
Great video! Imagine a world where the Smithsonian and other academic "authorities" weren't actively supressing these types of discoveries. The mainstream narrative would fall apart.
What narrative is that? Like, I could get theories that Bigfoot gets covered up because evolution was still controversial at the time, and then afterwards was covered up because they're disturbingly near human in intelligence or something along those lines. But late surviving, or even still surviving Mammoths hardly violates any foundational maxims of modern thought. After all, there is no issue taken with publishing papers about the Mammoths they survived into the late Roman Republic era on a Siberian island.
They dont. You have no idea how biological sciences work. Just regurgitate paranoid antiscience bs. A living mammoth? Thats a career defining discovery. An actual bigfoot? The same. Noone in their right minds hides this shit. Its the stuff they DREAM of. See homo floriensis.
The youngest mammoth that was documented in north america was barely older than the pyramids of giza, so if some populations survived a few more centuries it would at least make sense that the natives have an oral tradition about them.
Time for some Mammoth stories. And Snuffy is NOT a Mammoth! He's a Sniffleipplegus. Big diffirence! If they do stii exist, i really hope no ome finds them.
OP. You know where not the only population of humans. Right? Like Earth isn't the only home of humanity. Mammoths are already found. There might even be some in captivity or semi-domesticated.
The predators that mammoths would have had to deal with were badasses so the mammoth very likely would have had a hot temper towards any and everything. A male mammoth is muste would have been a rampaging monstrosity.
