Woolly mammoth remains are a popular display fossil of any collection. The famous Woolly mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius) can be considered the mascot animal of the Earth's final Ice Age and this massive beast most certainly gained respect to all that got in its way including both Neanderthals and modern humans.
With this listing we offer an amazing specimen - a stunning half mandible a large full-grown Woolly Mammoth. The size is stunning and the preservation is as good as it gets. Everything you see is 100% authentic and original to this jaw. The molar is truly massive! When this mammoth died, it was just moving to the front to where the anterior plates would start to break off in feeding but had not yet, so this tooth is literally at its maximum, ideal stage. If extracted from the jaw, it would easily measure 13-14 inches long. The color and preservation of every aspect of this specimen is top notch. From a 40+ year European collection and the finest / largest we ever offered from Central Europe.
