Specimen details:
- Type: Genuine woolly mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius) molar fossil
- Age: Pleistocene, Ice Age (tens of thousands of years old)

- Size: approximately 5.01 inches long by 2.97 inches wide (about 12.7 cm by 7.5 cm)

The grinding surface is the heart of a mammoth tooth. Those packed enamel ridges formed a natural washboard the animal used to grind the tough, gritty grasses of the Ice Age steppe, wearing down over years of heavy use. On this specimen the ridge pattern and enamel are clearly visible, the unmistakable signature of a genuine woolly mammoth molar rather than any other fossil.
