Read the passage and answer the question A team of Russian scientists has challenged the theory that the woolly mammothsbecame extinct 10,000 years ago at the end of the Ice Age. The scientists have reportedthat the beasts may have survived until 2000 B.C. on an island off the coast of Siberia,where researchers 5 uncovered 29 fossilized woolly mammoth teeth ranging in age from4,000 to 7,000 years. The question to be asked now is, how did these prehistoricpachyderms survive in their island environment? One possibility is that they adapted totheir confined surroundings by decreasing their bulk. This theory is based on their smallertooth size, which 10 has led scientists to believe that they were only 6 feet tall at theshoulder compared with 10 feet of their full-sized counterpart.
