Differences between woolly mammoth skull and elephant skulls
SimpleCollector100 posted a topic in Questions & Answers
I see clear differences between woolly rhino and today's rhinos but I am not sure it is as clear when looking at mammoth skulls vs modern elephant skulls? Maybe someone that is pretty experienced would help me spot the difference. I am looking at jaws & other bones for sale and I would not want to buy modern elephant bones. Thanks -
Looking for a good Woolly Rhino cave painting image
aplomado posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
I am looking for an attractive woolly rhino cave painting image, either a diagram or photograph. I want to print it 8x10 so it should have decent resolution, and I need to be free to legally reproduce it for personal use. I would like to use it for a fossil display background. Can anyone help? I already found the one below, but would like a better one if possible. -

Help With Identifying Mammoth Tooth
Janetzillah posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hi there, I work in an antiques store and we get in a huge variety of unusual items and sometimes, something comes in that we need some help with. I have attached pictures of what is apparently a baby woolly mammoth's tooth. I have never personally seen one before so I would never be able to tell a real one from a replica. I am a new member and hope that someone would be able to provide some information. Many thanks, Janet -

Here's the latest on molecular biology / biotechnology advances and our furry friend, the Woolly Mammoth. Unlike most dinosaur fossils, Woolly Mammoth remains are often found in frozen, less-deteriorated states in Siberia; and often contain viable proteins such as collagen, from which genetic sequences can be produced.
