Mammoths are Magical

they are massive, shaggy, colossal, one of a kind
gigantic creatures found as fossils
an extinct group of elephants

we call them wooly, northern or Siberian mammoths
they hailed from Africa, Asia, Europe and North America

Mammoths appeared in indigenous people’s folklore
In Siberia, it was believed they were responsible for
creating the world

One tribe believed mammoths guarded the underworld
they are magical and mystical, and over the top wonderful
no matter what your beliefs are
