Pleistocene Fossils
The Pleistocene epoch lasted from 1.8 million to approximately 10,000 years before the present. This is the period commonly referred to as "the ice age" and was characterized by the formation of large ice sheets across much of the earth's surface. Many of the megafauna that we associate with this period--Mammoths, Mastodons, Cave Bears, Large Cats, Giant Sloth's have been immortalized in the fossil record. Some of these animals are little changed from their contemporary relatives, while others perished at the end of the Pleistocene and exist only through fossil remains. All are magnificent.

Mammoth Fossils

Mammathus sp. (Pleistocene, var. localities, var. species)
Mammoth teeth are dredged up from the North Sea bottom ocean floor by flounder fishermen. Because they are rolled around on the ocean floor for thousands of years, their roots are often worn down on the upper side of the tooth, this generally occurred during the mammoth's life. Mammoths, like present-day elephants, go through six sets of teeth during their lifetime. Teeth from Alaska and Russia are typically in better shape with nicer roots.

Mastodon Fossils

Platybeladon sp. (Miocene, var. localities)
This extinct group of proboscidians was characterized by cusped molar teeth. We have fossils from both the American Mastodon Mammut americanum, and the much older Platybeladon sp. Commonly called "Shovel-Tuskers". The American mastodon is the most recent and best known species, while playtybeladon group of mastodons is more physically unique, being known for a scoop-like "shovel" formed form the fusion of its lower tusks.

Cave Bear Fossils

Ursus spelaeus (Pleistocene, Europe)
Cave bears thrived in Europe during the Pleistocene (about 40,000 years ago). Unlike many other Pleistocene mammals, they had the good graces to die during hibernation. Protected in their winter caves, large quantities of their bones have been perfectly preserved. In general shape and anatomy, cave bears most closely resemble grizzly bears, but were substantially larger.

Miocene Fossils
This Epoch lasted 18 million years, from 23 mya to 5.33 mya, and marks a turning point in history as the transition period between the pre-historic and a world much closer to the way earth is today. There is no better example of this change than in the fossil record. The Miocene's warm climates and geographical shifts heralded in some new major flora and the high point of mammals on earth. Though this period didn't have as many extant species as the more recent Pleistocene Epoch, it did bear the forerunners of the mammal species we know today, as well as some amazing mammals that our modern world has never known.

Ogliocene Fossils
The Ogliocene Epoch (34 - 24 mya) was the period that began the major evolutionary radiation of many new types of mammals. Though is contained very few extant mammal species in comparison to those periods that followed, the Ogliocene did spawn the prehistoric ancestors of dogs, cats, rhinoceroses , and horses that would thrive in the following ages.
