<h5>What is a mammoth?</h5>  <p>We all love to visit mountains, beaches, and other beautiful places. But did you know, millions of years ago, most of these places were covered with ice?</p>
<p>
Unbelievable, right? But it’s true. That period is called the ice age. Many animals, which are now extinct, used to live at that time. One of those animals was the mammoth.</p>
<p>You have seen pictures of elephants, right? Mammoths were just like elephants but were heavier and had longer tusks. Mammoths were of many different kinds like the woolly mammoth, Columbian mammoth, etc.</p>
<p>A mummified baby woolly mammoth was found in Canada. Let’s read more about it.
</p> <h5>What is the discovery all about?</h5>  <p>A few days ago, some miners in the Yukon territory of Canada found a mummified baby woolly mammoth. The baby mammoth was named ‘Nun cho ga’, which means ‘big baby animal’.
The baby mammoth is a female and died around 30,000 years ago. The discovery is special because it is very rare to find a mummified animal body in such a good condition.

      </figure> <p>Through palaeontology, we have been studying the mummified remains of animals for a long time. We have found information on what these animals ate, why they died, and what was their home like.
The baby mammoth has already given us some information about herself. She had grass in her body and was probably around thirty days old when she died.
</p> <h5>How can I know more about these mummified animals?</h5> <figure>

      </figure> <p>You can choose to become a palaeontologist to learn more about these extinct animals. Aside from mammoths, you can also find out more about other animals like the dinosaurs.
For now, look for any news regarding the baby mammoth. She may share some more exciting stuff about herself.
</p> <h5>Mammoths are awesome. How can I know more about them?</h5>  <p>After studying the mummified remains of mammoths, we know a lot about them. To know it yourself, you can watch documentaries on mammoths or the movie ‘Ice Age’ if you want to have a fun time.</p>

A mummified baby woolly mammoth was found in Canada. It can tell us a lot about the lives of mammoths. How? Let’s find out!
