The Woolf's Den

DinoFest: Page 3

There were more than just dinosaurs at DinoFest. One part of the exhibition hall was dominated by mammals: brontotheres, ground sloths, a couple of sabertooth cats, and an extraordinary elephant called a "shovel-tusked mastodon." I took several pictures of this guy from different angles, because it was just so bizarre looking.

2. Shovel-tusked mastodon, seen from the right front. The scoop-shaped jaw that gives it the name "shovel-tusker" is clearly visible.
