This Mammoth Died in a TAR PIT?! | Nature Bites

Travel back thousands of years to learn the journey - and death - of a Columbian Mammoth, which died a tragic death in a tar pit whilst in search of water.
The Columbian mammoth is an extinct species of mammoth that inhabited the Americas as far north as the Northern United States and as far south as Costa Rica during the Pleistocene epoch. It was one of the last in a line of mammoth species, beginning with Mammuthus subplanifrons in the early Pliocene.
From "Titans of the Ice Age 3D": Titans of the Ice Age transports viewers to the beautiful and otherworldly frozen landscapes of North America, Europe and Asia ten thousand years before modern civilization. Dazzling computer-generated imagery brings this mysterious era to life-from saber-toothed cats and giant sloths to the iconic mammoths, giants both feared and hunted by prehistoric humans. The magic of the giant screen reveals the harsh and beautiful kingdom of these titans: an ancient world of ice, the dawn of our ancestors, a time when humans fought for survival alongside majestic woolly beasts.

[@julianstokes6526]

I bet the extinct animals are rolling over there graves knowing how easily they could have avoided that. Especially the predators.

[@soheilak6208]

Absolutely amazing . I felt like I was present there !

[@veritywolfe960]

Jump scare 4:01

[@luisv526]

Ikr what the heck, luckily I went into the comments before that happened

[@Cyberraptor14]

Also just remember that the La Brea Tar pits are in L.A So in the 2012 movie, there likely offscreen tar pit fatalities

[@teethtwinglear]

For a second I thought the sabertooth resurrected and RRAAAWRRRR🤣

The narrator's voice ❤️ don't know who he is but it's like the young David Attenborough

[@DingDangJon]

Sounds like the late Christopher Plummer to me.

[@reymondatienza8427]

[@Cyberraptor14]

This is the reason humans evolved more intelligence.

Never go for food in the tar pits

[@leo99991]

Why are scientists so fascinated about cloning woolly mammoth and not columbian mammoths?

[@Agorillaonanuke3868]

I know Columbian mammoths look like you need Asian elephant DNA + columbian mammoth bones = clone.

[@Tom.the.cat2K]

Because we're finding more Woolly mammoth bodies frozen than we do with Columbian mammoths

[@januszbolbotowski7943]

@@Agorillaonanuke3868 Or African elephant DNA.

[@Agorillaonanuke3868]

@@januszbolbotowski7943 eh, Asian elephants are more related to mammoths more than African elephants 😄

This is not a documentary, it's a movie, speculation.

[@robertmartinjr.4537]

Animals still get trapped by the tar there are small pockets that surround the main pit. Even in modern times the tar pits are still lethal.
