Just so you know, that's a MAMMOTH, not a MASTODON. Separated by about 30 million years of evolution, different dentition & diet. Distant proboscidean cousins, at best.
The Bell Museum. July. Be there.

I mention this knowing a bunch of people will look me up on "Rate My Professors", but man, that site objectively sucks.
Remember when Dawkins shit the bed on my blog? Good times.
