Female Woolly Mammoths Were Preferred Targets for Ice Age Hunters
Ice Age hunters faced a large, dangerous animal, the woolly mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius), to obtain food to survive in a harsh environment. Adult females stood approximately 8 to 9.5 feet tall and weighed around 3 to 4 tons, while large males could exceed 11 feet and weigh up to 6 tons or more. A single charging mammoth had the power to trample or gore hunters with tusks that could reach up to 14 feet. Now, ancient DNA is revealing that prehistoric people were strategic in how they hunted these megafauna. By analyzing the genetic remains of butchered woolly mammoths, researchers have discovered that humans targeted female animals. This strategy may have increased food supplies while reshaping mammoth populations for millennia before the species vanished.
