Three species of mammoths lived on the mainland of the United States at the end of the last Ice Age. These were the Columbian mammoth , Jefferson's mammoth , and the woolly mammoth. Of these, Jefferson's mammoth and the woolly mammoth have been identified from the midwestern U.S

Mammoths, mastodons and modern elephants, are members of the order Proboscidea. The mammoths are closely related to the living elephants, especially to the Asiatic elephant.

As adults they stood between about 10-12 feet at the shoulder and weighed between 6-8 tons.

Approximately 1.5 to 1.8 million years ago the first mammoths entered North America. These mammoths came from Eurasia, crossing the Bering Strait at a time when sea level was lower than today.

Approximately 11,000 years ago all species of mammoths went extinct in North America.
