1 The final resting place of woolly mammoths was Wrangel Island in the Arctic. 2  Although, most of the woolly mammoth population died out by 10,000 years ago, a small population of 500-1000 woolly mammoths lived on Wrangel Island until 1650 BC. 3  Thatâs only about 4,000 years ago!
Mammoths are relatives of elephants and are believed to have thrived during the Pleistocene Period about 1.8 millions years ago. Because mammoths are adapted to colder climate, many scientists believe that the woolly giants began to dwindle after the Ice Age.
