'Woolly mammoth' spotted in Siberia
The animal – thought to have mostly died out roughly 4,000 years ago – was apparently filmed wading through a river in the freezing wilds of Siberia.The jaw-dropping footage was caught by a government-employed engineer last summer in the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug region of Siberia, it is claimed.
He filmed the elephant-sized creature as it struggled against the racing water.Its hair matches samples recovered from mammoth remains regularly dug up from the permafrost in frozen Russia.
The official was reportedly in the area surveying for a planned road.
"Siberia is an enormous territory and much of it remains completely unexplored and untouched by humans. "
Maybe they didn't die off after all? Maybe they've just not been seen? I mean we keep finding new creatures every day that we once thought were extinct or never even existed.
Of course this could just be a wayward Pachyderm or maybe, just maybe, it's a species never before seen and may be a descendent of the Wooly Mammoth?

Looks fake in the video too. Like a bear with some 'added' effects to look like a trunk.
Also, wouldn't a Wooly Mammoth or any other elephant-type animal hold their trunk OUT of the water as they are walking through it?
I know I would. Whats the point of having a built in snorkle if you're gonna drag it along under the water?

No worries. They will return to planet Earth soon enough.
Woolly mammoth to be brought back to life from cloned bone marrow 'within five years'
Of course, I doubt the time scale, but it will happen in our lifetime.

Woolly mammoths are known for their sizable tusks...
...Which were larger than your average modern elephant.

I was thinking the same thing. Wtf are the massive tusks? More to the point, what's so "mammoth" about it? It certainly did not look to be big enough to me, although perhaps my distance perception is lacking. Originally Posted by Beatnik Bob

Could it be a baby Wooly Mammoth? One that hasn't grown it's tusks yet?
What about the fact hair samples were taken and MATCHED to that of an ancient Wooly Mammoth?

If it's a bear it's a really really HUGE bear.
I don't know what to make of it but it does look like a Mammoth. And the HAIR SAMPLES TAKEN PROVE IT!

To be fair, there's nothing to reference the size of the animal. It's "huge" because the article says it's huge. Originally Posted by Blu-ray

They should have to show the documents from the study before people believe it. Originally Posted by Blu-ray

Nice find. However, this is not the original video as it is a video that was created to cover up the truth! Originally Posted by Sirius

Where is the Mammoth? Is it hiding behind the bear?

DescriptionColoration varies geographically, but is generally olive green on the head blending to reddish brown in the tail. Adipose, anal, and caudal fins are often dark red. The belly ranges from nearly white to dark gray. The taimen is the largest salmonid in the world. The maximum size is not well known, but a fish caught in the Kotui River in Russia with a length of 210 cm (83 in) and a weight of 105 kg (231 lb) is the largest reliable record (Holcik et al. 1988). The IGFA world record is a little under 100 lb or 45 kg. [1] It can reach at least 55 years of age.
This describe the largest species of Siberian Salmon.lets say this woolie babe lucked out and caught the biggest fish ever.... 231 pluw lbs. thai would be about the size of a full grown man. If the salmon was smaller a hundred pounder.
proportionately, that photo just dosent seem right when considering the reported size of a wolly mammoth. If the fish were smaller it would be hardly noticable using a camera. How far away could the photographer been - a zoom shot?
.
cOULD THIS BE TRUE?
Fox news actually aired this video?
'Mammoth' video identified ... without the mammoth
Petho noted that his original video had been available on YouTube since July 2011, depicting an exactly identical scene — minus the woolly mammoth, of course.
Filmmaker says his footage was apparently altered to add mysterious shape

Fun thread, especially since you thought a mammoth could hide behind a bear?.
