Defrosting A Woolly Mammoth

Outlook

Available for over a year

40,000 years ago a woolly mammoth fell into a Siberian peat bog and died. The frozen remains were discovered last year. The British palaeo-biologist Dr Tori Herridge was part of the team of scientists that defrosted and dissected the body. Picture: Dr Tori Herridge (3rd from left) at the woolly mammoth autopsy.
