About Prehistoric Woolly Mammoth Hunt
When did humans first hunt woolly mammoths?

Hunters used coordinated group tactics, driving mammoths into pit traps, off cliffs, or into boggy areas where they'd get stuck. They attacked with wooden spears tipped with sharp stone points.
What parts of the mammoth did humans use?
Nearly every part was valuable: meat for food, hide for clothing and shelter, bones for tools and building materials, fat for fuel, and ivory tusks for crafting weapons and art.

Adult woolly mammoths stood 9-11 feet tall and weighed 4-6 tons. They were similar in size to modern African elephants but had much longer, curved tusks and thick fur.
