Few paleontological specimens are as complete as the Hebior mammoth. The skeleton lacks a rib as well as a few bones in the tail and feet, but is otherwise nearly whole.
Standing more than twice the height of a person, the woolly mammoth is among three with scientific significance for southern Wisconsin.
The Milwaukee museum already had skeletons of a mastodon and Chinese elephant. This is its first woolly mammoth.
