Researchers at the University of Helsinki said – Four thousand years ago, due to extreme seasonal events, the death of the ancient giant elephants.

London, The mammoths (giant elephants) found in the tundra regions of Siberia during the Ice Age have been extinct thousands of years ago.

By studying fossils, researchers keep giving new information about their living from time to time. In a recent study about mammoths, researchers have claimed that the world’s last mammoth living on Wrangel Island in the Arctic Ocean died four thousand years ago due to extreme seasonal events.

An international team, including researchers from the University of Helsinki, Finland, have explored the causes of the extinction of these giant elephants by creating scenarios of extreme weather events through a computer model.

Mammoths were found in Siberia during the ice age

According to the study published in the journal Quaternary Science Review, mammoths continued to spread from Spain to Alaska in the northern shells until the last time of the ice age (one million to 15 thousand years ago).

Due to global warming that began 15,000 years ago, their habitats were gradually confined to northern Siberia and Alaska.

Mammoths living on the Rengel Island were cut off from the other world due to rising seawater levels and its population here lived for the next seven thousand years.

The team of researchers also included researchers from the University of Tübingen and the Russian Academy of Science in Germany.

For this study, researchers studied mammoth fossils (teeth, bones, etc.) from northern Siberia, Alaska, Ukraine, and Wrangel Island.

Due to global warming, their population has ended

During this time, researchers found that mammals of mammoths on Wrangel Island were not completely eradicated for ten thousand years even after increasing heat.

This means that even after the onset of global warming, Mammoth must have tried to keep itself climate-friendly for many years.

On the other hand, mammoths disappeared 15,000 years ago in the plains of Ukraine and Russia, while mammoths of St. Paul’s Island in Alaska disappeared 5,600 years ago.

In the course of the study, researchers said that in both cases significant changes were seen in the anatomy of the last representatives of their populations, meaning that their environment must have changed drastically before extinction.
