Check Out a Mammoth Skeleton in the Museum of Paleontology

Travel through time to the end of the age of the reptiles and the beginning of that of mammals in the Museum of Paleontology. This museum will teach you more about the Cenozoic age. Its main attraction is a mammoth skeleton. 

It is believed that this species arrived in the area some 45,000 years ago, and a unique endemic species evolved. This species only existed in North America. In its time, it was the largest land animal on earth, larger even than the woolly mammoth and the Asian and African elephants of the era.
