    Description

    Hi all!
    This is a Large Woolly Rhinoceros (Coelodonta
    antiquitatis
    ) Upper Molar from the Pleistocene of Siberia!
    This molar was unerupted, meaning it had formed in the skull but never descended before the animal died!
    The dimensions measure 2.7135 x 2.2 x 2.12 Inches (6.89 x 5.59 x 5.38 cm)!
    The Woolly Rhinoceros is a species of rhinoceros that lived throughout Europe and North Asia from 3.6 million to 10,000 years ago. It was covered in a thick layer of course hair that helped protect it from the freezing temperatures of the Ice Age much like the Woolly Mammoth. Adults ranged in size from 10-12.5 feet (3-3.8 meters) in length, about 6.6 feet (2 meters) tall at the shoulder, and 4-6 thousand pounds (1800-2700 kilograms). Much like modern rhinoceroses, the woolly rhino fed on tough vegetation using its large molars. A great opportunity to own a piece of one of the most iconic Ice Age mammals!
