Visitors at a museum observe the skeletal remains of a large mammal with prominent tusks, likely a prehistoric creature such as a mammoth, displayed in an exhibit hall.
The Ice Age is a chapter on planet earth where many unique creatures inhabited the earth which is now extinct such as the towering Mammoth. At the Mammoth Site of Hot Springs attraction, individuals can see actual fossils that are proof of the existence of the creature. In 1974 the site was being cultivated for a housing project till the contractors dug up mysterious bones along with large tusks and teeth. As a result an archeological team was brought in to verify the authenticity of the bones, and today this site is now preserved for its historical significance, now tourists can go to see the Mammoth Site of Hot Spring in South Dakota and it is a great place to let kids experience a part of the earth's humble beginnings.
