Claim CC361.2:

The bodies of mammoths that apparently froze suddenly have been found. Their flesh was well preserved, and they still had food in their mouths. This shows that they were quick-frozen in some sort of catastrophe.

Source:

• Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, 1985. Life—How Did It Get Here? Brooklyn, NY, p. 203.

CreationWiki response:

1. The cited source is a poor source of creation material.
2. CreationWiki has no disagreement here. This claim is out of date. Most creationists now regard frozen mammoths as products of the post-Flood ice age.
