The wooly mammoth ate grass and sedges that grew low to the ground because there were few trees to be found in the grassy steppe landscape.

Like modern elephants, the mammoth's tusks were used in conjunction with its trunk to acquire food, fight with predators and other mammoths, and move things around when needed. One day while chasing the infamous acorn, he finds a baby Scrat instead.

Consisting of six short episodes, it focuses on Scrat the Ice Age squirrel trying to figure out fatherhood. Another difference between mammoths and elephants: a pair of exceedingly long tusks that curved in an exaggerated arc around its face. ICE AGE: SCRAT TALES is an animated comedy on Disney Plus.

The mammoth's ears were smaller than the African elephant's, helping it retain body heat and minimize the risk of frostbite. Manny was a reddish-brown color, but mammoths ranged in color from black to blond and variations in between. Instead of being bare-skinned, the wooly mammoth grew very thick fur all over its body that consisted of long guard hairs and a shorter, dense undercoat. The wooly mammoth was about as big as an African elephant but had a couple of distinct differences from today's elephants. Manny is a woolly mammoth ( Mammuthus primigenius), a species that lived about 200,000 years ago on the steppes of eastern Eurasia and North America.
