Woolly Creatures

You will normally find furry animals in areas where the weather is extremely cold. The woolly rhino is one such creature. This recent find was well-preserved enough that its fur remained intact where predators had not chewed on it. This rhino was estimated to be about 18 months old. Discovered in Sakha in Russia, it was believed that the last of these animals went extinct about 10,000 years ago.

Sabretooth tigers roamed the Arctic, though Russian scientists discovered these unique specimens in Yakutia in Siberia. These cubs were also so well-preserved the fur remains the same. They died out about 10,000 years ago as well. Scientists believe that their demise came after the rise of human hunting and global heating.
