| The Mammoth Site of Hot Springs gives you a real feel for what the Great Plains must have been like some 26,000 years ago. More than 40 woolly and Columbian mammoths have been uncovered here in the past quarter century. What makes this particular bonebed so special is that the fossils lie in situ. The mammoths died around a spring fed pond, and then were preserved intact. No scavengers dragged bones away and no water erosion carried scattered carcasses downstream. Supposedly this is the largest concentration in the world of mammoths still in their deathbeds, untouched. |
