Young Butchered Mammoth Discovered In Siberia 72
Velcroman1 writes "A juvenile mammoth, nicknamed 'Yuka,' was found entombed in Siberian ice near the shores of the Arctic Ocean and shows signs of being cut open by ancient people. The remarkably well preserved frozen carcass was discovered in Siberia as part of a BBC/Discovery Channel-funded expedition and is believed to be at least 10,000 years old, if not older. If further study confirms the preliminary findings, it would be the first mammoth carcass revealing signs of human interaction in the region. The carcass is in such good shape that much of its flesh is still intact, retaining its pink color. The blonde-red hue of Yuka's woolly coat also remains."

The Earth is only 6,000 years old! Therefore, this doesn't exist. Or God just planted evidence to test our faith.

Sounds like it would taste gamy...Maybe it should be marinated in some prehistoric plumb sauce.
Naah. Just homogenize it, centrifuge it, then extrude it at high pressure through a stream of ammonia gas and mix it with hamburger meat. No one will know the difference!

There were companies in the US that could turn this into finely textured mammoth meat
