American Mastodon (Safari)

The American Mastodon was one of the most fascinating and iconic creatures of the Ice Age. Known for its impressive size and distinctive, curved tusks, the American Mastodon roamed North America approximately 10,000 years ago. This massive herbivore could grow up to 10 feet tall at the shoulder and weigh as much as 12,000 pounds, making it one of the largest land mammals of its time.

The American Mastodon had a long, shaggy coat of hair that helped it survive in the cold climates of the Pleistocene epoch. Its tusks, which could reach up to 16 feet in length, were used for foraging, digging, and fighting. Unlike its distant relative, the woolly mammoth, the Mastodon had more conical teeth, adapted for chewing leaves and branches. The fossilized remains of American Mastodons have provided scientists with valuable insights into the flora and fauna of prehistoric North America, making them a subject of great interest for paleontologists and history enthusiasts alike.
