Trivia: The last woolly mammoths lived on an island in what modern-day country?
Canada
South Africa
Russia
Argentina
The correct answer is Russia
So why is this answer correct? : The last wooly mammoths that roamed the planet lived in isolation on Wrangel Island, a Russian possession in the Arctic Ocean just northwest of Alaska. Scientists think the mammoths contained on this island experienced what scientists call a “genetic meltdown” due to a limited gene pool and mutations that made it harder to mate.
