i'm pretty confident it was buffalo.
I don't think there were mammoths in America, especially not when the first peoples crossed the Bering land bridge and settled.
you could always go to wikipedia.org and see what it has to say.
you'll find information like this "many excavations have uncovered evidence that early hunters also consumed less glamorous foods, such as turtles, shellfish, and tubers. This is quite a change of diet from the big game mammoths, long-horn bison, horse, and camels that early Clovis hunters apparently followed east into the New World."

Read: Ancient Men of the Arctic. the author discusses ancient archelogical sites and evidence of how these ancients lived including evidence of their subsistence diet. Primarily they ate local fauna and flora. big on their year round diet was fish protein and if they lived near the coast,sea mammals, then include opporunitistic seasonal fare like birds, eggs, leaves, berries, roots, etc. fish was augmented by trapping and ambushing land mammals. Diet changed somewhat as technology improved, ascending with the introduction of spear launchers, bow and arrows, barbed hunting tips, and, which I guess would end with rifles.
