Covered ininsulating moisture-resistant hair that could measure up to a metre in length, adult mammoths weighed up to 8,000 kilograms and grew to more than three metres in height. They used their massive tusks to fendoff predators and to dig in the snow and gather food. Though their key predators were the various largecats and wolves that populated the continent-and even then, only when the mammoth were young enough to fell-human hunters proved perhaps the deadliest of all for the mammoth and are believed to have eradicated them in a number of regions. The last mammoth population, on Russia's Wrangel Island in theArctic Ocean, died out around 2000 BC.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHistory doesn't get much cooler than your frozen Woolly Mammoth coin!

The image centres on a single mammoth who faces the viewer, its massive tusks rising high into the sky. The image is overlain with a frosted \"ice\" like dome. The portion of the portrait under the ice is coloured, while the remainder of the image is struck-only. The reverse includes the text \"CANADA\" and the date \"2018.\" The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt, as well as the coin value of \"20 DOLLARS.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDid you knowÉ\u003cbr\u003eThe mammoth thrived throughout the Pleistocene Era, a period of successive glaciations throughout the Northern Hemisphere that featured a significant drop in global temperatures.\u003cbr\u003eMammoths are one of the most common and well-preserved species uncovered from the Ice Age, making them one of the best known mammals of the Pleistocene.\u003cbr\u003eMammoths are believed to have lived, on average,between 60 and 80 years.\u003cbr\u003eEver wonder why mammoths looks so similar to, yet different from, elephants? The mammoth's adaptations for cold environments-and the elephant's adaptations for heat-make the two surprisingly different. Besides their shaggy fur and mouth specially structured for grazing on tough grasses, the mammoth's ears were significantly smaller than those of the elephant, whose large ears are an important thermoregulator.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"J\u0026M Coins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40785013506123,"sku":"RCM.CA.SV.CN.003075","price":90.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0556\/2872\/6347\/files\/5017682_Full_Obv_9c56abe4-1814-45f1-87dc-9e4b6717d99d.jpg?v=1717053708","url":"https:\/\/jandmcoins.com\/products\/canada-silver-2018-d20-woolly-mammoth-frozen-in-ice-pf-1_025oz_-_9999","provider":"J\u0026M Coin \u0026 Jewellery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
