Colors of the arrows show their timing. The initial peopling of Berinigia
(in light yellow) was followed by a standstill. Then the ancestors of
Native Americans spread swiftly all over the New World. More recent
migration (shown in green) shows back-migration into Siberia and the
spread of D2a into north-eastern America.

Woolly Mammoth

Once upon a time, the prehistoric steppes of North America hosted a menagerie of giant mammals &#8212; woolly mammoths, saber-toothed tigers, cave bears, camels, horses, lions, giant ground sloths as well as bison, moose, musk-oxen and even spear-chucking humans dressed in fur.
As any video-watching child knows well, the late centuries of the [...]]]></description>

Remains of bearded seal (Erignathus barbatus) of all ages
have been recovered from the Amaknak Bridge site on
the Island of Unalaska in the eastern Aleutians. Shown
here are mandibles from a fully mature prehistoric
adult and a pup several weeks old (top). Bearded seals
give birth on sea ice in early April and nurse their young
for about three weeks. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When a species goes extinct, sometimes fossils can be found, remains uncovered. The presence of DNA might allow scientists to decipher the biological essence. We know the Stegosaurus. We can study the Wooly Mammoth.
