hunted to extinction because of them and other predators The people indigenous to Siberia have found the remains of Woolly Mammoths and have used their tusk fossils in the ivory trade The khan of the Mongols during the 13th century was said to have sat on a throne made of Woolly Mammoth ivory Because the well preserved Woolly Mammoths were decayed, the smell was so awful that only wild scavengers and the dogs that followed the explorers would eat the carcasses. However, the Chinese sometimes recommended Woolly Mammoth meat for illnesses and some Siberians cooked the Woolly Mammoth meat they found.
