Mammoth evolutionary migration, artwork
Mammoth evolutionary migration. Artwork showing the evolution and migration of mammoth species over millions of years. Starting in Africa from 4.8 to 3 million years ago, the mammoth spread to Europe and central Asia (2.6 to 0.7 million years ago), to India (0.7 to 0.3 million years ago), Siberia (350, 000 to 3, 700 years ago) and North America (1.2 to 0.2 million years ago). A dwarf species of mammoth survived the last Ice Age (20, 000 years ago), and was found in California up until 13, 500 years ago. All these mammoth species are now extinct

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Mammoth Evolutionary Migration" takes us on a visual journey through millions of years of mammoth history. The print showcases the remarkable evolution and migration patterns of these majestic creatures across various continents. The story begins in Africa, where the first mammoths emerged approximately 4.8 to 3 million years ago. From there, they embarked on an epic journey, spreading their presence to Europe and central Asia between 2.6 and 0.7 million years ago. India became their next destination from 0.7 to 0.3 million years ago, followed by Siberia around 350,000 to 3,700 years ago. One cannot overlook the significant milestone when mammoths reached North America between 1.2 and 0.2 million years ago – a crucial chapter in their evolutionary tale. Remarkably, even during the last Ice Age approximately twenty thousand years ago, a dwarf species of mammoth managed to survive against all odds until about thirteen thousand five hundred years ago in California. Sadly though, all these magnificent mammoth species are now extinct; however this artwork serves as a poignant reminder of their once thriving existence on our planet. This mesmerizing illustration not only highlights the biological aspects but also offers insights into paleontology and zoology while tracing the footsteps of these ancient giants across time and space.
