    Extractions: TESTIMONY THE AMERICAN REMAINS The evidence of the violence of nature combined with the stench of rotting carcasses was staggering. The ice fields containing these remains stretched for hundred of miles in every direction (Hibben, 1946). Trees and animals, layers of peat and mosses, twisted and mangled together like some giant mixer had jumbled them some 10,000 years ago, and then froze them into a solid mass (Sanderson, 1960). The evidence immediately suggests an enormous tidal wave which raged over the land, tumbling animals and vegetation within its mass, which was then quick-frozen. But the extinction is not limited to the Arctic.

    Extractions: The most complete Pygmy Mammoth skeleton ever found inspired the centerpiece of the Geology and Paleontology Hall a re-creation of the skeleton as it appeared in situ . Adjacent to this is an exhibit with an articulated Pygmy Mammoth skeleton and a painting of a full-sized Columbian Mammoth and American Mastodon. Columbian Mammoths swam to Santarosae, a large island off our coast during Pleistocene times. As sea levels rose and Santarosae became several smaller islands, the mammoths evolved into a pygmy form better suited to survival in the limited habitat. A fantastic new discovery has been brought to the forefront of science with the recent discovery of the most complete skeleton to date of a Channel Islands Pygmy Mammoth ( Mammuthus exilis ). The skeleton was excavated on Santa Rosa Island in August of 1994 by a team of National Park Service researchers led by Dr. Larry Agenbroad, a Museum Research Associate.

    Extractions: About the Authors Chapter 38. David Thompson: mammoth hunter David Thompson’s quest for mammoths transcended the living and the fossil realm. He looked, in vain, in stream banks throughout the west for fossil bones and tusks and then was challenged by the possibility of meeting a living mammoth in a pass through the Rockies A tusk, third molar and large bone of a mammoth from the Yukon Territory. Tusk is over 1.1 m across curvature. University of Alberta Collections. Photo by BDEC (c). The scientific and systematic search for fossils in Canada started in 1797 when the celebrated geographer and cartographer David Thompson quit the Hudson’s Bay Company to go to work for the North West Company. Among the explicit instructions he received from his new bosses was a most unusual one that had nothing to do with surveying or map making or with the fur trade. They requested that, "in the interests of science and history he was to look for the fossils of large animals, and any monuments". No written record exists that explains the rationale for this remarkable directive, but it might have been "in the interests of commerce", alluding to mammoth ivory which was already the object of a lucrative trade in Siberia.

    Extractions: Machairodus ( meaning "knife tooth") was a common saber-toothed cat that lived from about 15 million years ago until about 2 million years ago. Species of this scimitar cat have been found in Africa, Europe, Asia, and North America. This lion-sized meat-eating mammal had slender limbs and a short tail; the upper jaw canine teeth were large. Machairodus was named by Kaup in 1833. Classification: Family Felidae, Subfamily Machairodontinae, Genus Machairodus, many species. MACHAEROPROSOPUS (pronounced ma-KEER-oh-pro-SOH-pus) Machaeroprosopus ( meaning "knife face") was a phytosaur (not a dinosaur). This marine reptile had a thin, knife-like crest of its skull (hence its name). This crocodile-like animal had four short legs, a long tail, armored skin, sharp teeth in elongated jaws, and nostrils near the eyes. It lived during the late Triassic period. Fossils have been found in North America. Machaeroprosopus was named by Mehl in 1916; the type species is

    Extractions: Mammoth Extinction and Human Hunger Earlier this year a book caught my eye at my favorite book store: The Call of Distant Mammoths - Why the Ice Age Mammals Disappeared , by Peter D. Ward. This 241-page book is published by Copernicus/Springer-Verlag at $26 in hardcover. Ward is also the author of other books of note such as: The End of Evolution , and On Methuselah’s Trail . I have not read these other works but after having read this one I will probably read them as well. Why? I was very impressed with Ward’s writing and having read many books by many authors I can assure you that not everyone can write this well. Peter Ward is Professor of Geological Sciences, Professor of Zoology, and Curator of Paleontology at the University of Washington, Seattle. He has a recent paper with W. Bruce Saunders in the Journal of Paleontology (Volume 71, No. 6, 1997) wherein he establishes a new genus of the living nautiloid cephalopods. Ward’s premise is to determine a cause for the extinction of the large land animals of the most recent ice age including mammoths and mastodons. It appears from the beginning that he favors the rise of human populations as a major force in their demise. Ward does consider this to be a mass extinction while other authors that I have read do not since its effects were primarily on large land animals. "The Time Machine", chapter one, begins with Ward taking the reader to three specific and significant times and places in pre-history: 115,000 years before present near the Cape of Good Hope on the coast of South Africa. Here we observe some of the earliest modern humans known; 35,000 years before present on the northern coast of Australia where we see the earliest arrival of humans to this continent; and lastly 11,000 years before present in the American southwest. We see no humans here but only stone spear points amidst drying mammoth bones at an equally dry seasonal lake bed. Ward begins to set the reader’s thoughts to the great human successes in reproduction and technology which have allowed our global expansion at the expense of the lesser creatures.
