Woolly Mammoth found in the Yukon

Yukon Territory, Canada...............As we traveled over White Pass crossing from Alaska to the Yukon Territory there was a change. The wind howled, the snow was heavy on the ground and there was little else in the open tundra. Low growing vegetation stunted from the permafrost dotted the forbidding landscape. But in a very short 30 minutes the sun began to shine and there was a change in the season. No snow at the small rugged frontier town of Carcross.

The Woolly Mammoth....Sorry, we did find one but he is a creation of a very talented taxidermist who has an exhibition set up just outside of Carcross (Caribou Crossing).











Another extinct creature brought back to life.











This was real.! A goat used the horse as a vantage point.
