Can't wait til that new movie 2,500 B.C. comes out. It looks pretty good with dinosaurs, sabretooth tigers, etc.
The "mammoth" is a mastodon. Here's a description of the AMNH specimen, which is known as the "Warren mastodon."
The bigger one in the background is a mammoth. That fisheye lens really messes with the scale!
AJ, are you only going to watch 25%

That turtle! Remember it well on a visit to NYC. Walked in and happened to look up.
Wow!!!!!!
Only time in my life I have been awed by a turtle.

Lions and tigers and bears, oh my,
They give me the same nightmares at night,
As mammoths huge hairy and tusked (sigh)
Gave my ancestor hominids fright.

Well, an unnatural knowledge of proboscideans is not necessarily a good thing!
I should have taken the trouble to do an extra shot of the information cards so I could label things properly. A mastodon is the more amazing animal too, isn't it? I feel bad about disrespecting it.
