Cave paintings of the giant beasts hint at the profound role they played in early human culture - our Ice Age ancestors built igloo-shaped huts out of mammoth bones and even feasted on mammoth tongues. Eager to uncover more clues to this mystical prehistoric age, explorers since the time of Peter the Great have joined in the great hunt for mammoth remains. Now a new generation of explorers has taken to the tundra. Armed with global positioning satellites, ground-penetrating rada.
