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!
Quick Answer. Woolly mammoths lived in Europe, Northern Asia, Africa, parts of Mexico and North America. They roamed the Earth during the period commonly known as the Ice Age. The woolly mammoth disappeared from the Earth roughly 10,000 years ago. While there are differing opinions about why this occurred, a few changes at the time played a part in their extinction. When the Earth warmed up at the end of the Ice Age, it is thought that the mammoth's adaption to the extreme cold of the glaciers could not handle the change. In addition, plants that the creatures survived upon also disappeared with the rise in temperature.
