Mammoth leg
Mammoth leg (Mammuthus sp.). This leg was found preserved in permafrost in Berelekh, eastern Siberia, Russia. Its soft tissues and wool are largely intact and it is being displayed in the Yakutsk geological museum. Mammoths are an elephant-like mammal which inhabited northern regions of the world and became extinct only a few thousand years ago. Many similar bodies have been found elsewhere preserved in permafrost. In 1970 alone, around 8000 bones from 120 mammoths were extracted from the Berelekh site

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mammoth leg, belonging to the species Mammuthus sp. , that was discovered perfectly preserved in permafrost in Berelekh, eastern Siberia, Russia. The remarkable preservation of its soft tissues and wool is truly awe-inspiring. Currently on display at the Yakutsk geological museum, this mammoth leg offers us a rare glimpse into the past. Mammoths were magnificent elephant-like mammals that once roamed the northern regions of our planet but sadly became extinct only a few thousand years ago. Similar well-preserved bodies have been unearthed from various locations trapped in permafrost. In fact, during 1970 alone, an astounding number of bones from 120 mammoths were extracted from the Berelekh site. This monochrome photograph not only captures the sheer size and strength of this ancient creature's leg but also evokes a sense of wonder about our prehistoric world. It serves as a reminder of how interconnected we are with Earth's history and its diverse array of life forms. Displayed against a white backdrop, this image allows us to appreciate every intricate detail - from the texture of its wool to the structure of its bone - offering valuable insights for scientists studying paleontology, zoology, archaeology, and biology. This photograph stands as a testament to human curiosity and scientific exploration while honoring these majestic creatures that once walked our planet thousands of years ago.
