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!
The Pyramids of Giza (i.e. the famous ones, Egypt has a lot of pyramids) were finished about 1000 years prior to that. So, yes, there were mammoths, but not the huge ones we tend to think of when we hear the word. Mainland mammoths died out about 10,000 years ago, at the end of the last ice age. The dwarf mammoths got to around the proportions of a great dane, though (perhaps obviously) considerably heavier.
