What happened to the jarkov woolly mammoth?

Comment on 'Land of the Mammoth'
by Michael J. Oard

16 March, 2001

The presentation of 'Land of the Mammoth' on the Discovery Channel, March 11, was a sequel to the show of last March in which mammoth researchers dug out what they thought was a frozen carcass encased in a block of icy mud. The plan was to slowly thaw out the block the next summer and early fall. This was one of two main themes in the "Land of the Mammoth." However, the researchers were quite disappointed to find only a bit of frozen flesh about the size of a strip of bacon along with 4 vertebrae and 2 ribs. There was no frozen carcass. However, they only thawed out the top 7 inches or so of the block and hope to find the contents of the stomach next year.
