Summary

"Realistic illustrations highlight this story about a day in the life of the woolly mammoth, or Mammuthus primigenius, an animal that lived during the last Ice Age. The woolly mammoth weighed up to six-and-a-half tons (six metric tons) and stood ten feet (three meters) tall. It had long outer hair and huge curved tusks that it used to dig for food under the snow and as powerful weapons against enemies. Created in collaboration with the Smithsonian Institution, information sections give all the vital statistics about the woolly mammoth." --Back cover
