Where can I see a reasonably complete skeleton of a Mammoth?
I was just watching some documentary about ice age animals, and I was wondering if there is a museum somewhere that displays reasonably complete skeletons (and/or full-size models) of Mammoths, sabre-tooth tigers, etc.
Ideally it should be not far from London.
Best Answer
While someone finds one closer to London, the La Brea Tar Pits museum in Los Angeles have awesome and quite complete skeletons. As you may infer from the name, in this area tar pits have caused animals that sank into them to remain remarkably intact. The museum is near La Brea road which means tar and excavations for more remains are ongoing.
