The term "Mammoth (Colossal)" typically refers to the large, extinct species of elephant known as the Mammuthus primigenius, commonly called the woolly mammoth. These creatures roamed the Earth during the last Ice Age and were characterized by their long, curved tusks and thick fur, which helped them survive in cold environments. They primarily inhabited the northern parts of North America, Europe, and Asia. Mammoths were herbivores, feeding on grasses, shrubs, and other vegetation. They played a significant role in their ecosystems, and their extinction around 4,000 years ago is believed to be due to a combination of climate change and hunting by early humans. Today, scientists study mammoth remains to learn more about their biology and the environments they lived in.
