comments,

  • They call this specimen “Archie.”""Just don\t call him “woolly”
  • Tar pits took the lives of many of these mammoths and other creatures of their time.""But those pits also offer paleontologists a window onto the distant past
  • These prehistoric proboscideans once roamed across the southern half of North America.""Our model is on display in the state where he was found
