This is an excellent fossilized mammoth tusk. It is a tusk from the Woolly Mammoth, Mammuthus primigenius. This specimen is from the same area that was featured in the Discovery Channel special, "Raising the Mammoth". The tusk is intact down to the very tip, but the root has been removed for better display. The tusk is mostly solid and heavy, meaning the value of the fossil ivory in the tusk is tremendous. This is a very collectible Mammoth tusk that displays beautifully (a display stand is included for free).
