Although the first two pictures look like a mammoth, it’s actually a mastodont (Mammut americanum) of the Late Pleistocene (12,000 years ago). But how do the two differ? Mastodonts had rounded teeth, ate tree leaves, and had a pair of smaller tusks alongside their larger ones. Mammoths have one tusk set, and preferred grass and other plants low to to ground.
