Lyuba, preserved woolly mammoth

Baby woolly mammoth. Lyuba, one of the best-preserved woolly mammoths (Mammuthus primigenius) ever found. Lyuba was a female calf who died about 40, 000 years ago at the age of about one month. It is thought she drowned in mud while crossing a river. Her carcass is 85cm high and 130cm from trunk to tail and weighed 50kg. The preservation of the body is remarkable, with skin, hair, eyes and internal organs essentially intact. Woolly mammoths became extinct about 10, 000 years ago. Lyuba was found in May 2007 by a hunter in the Yamal Peninsula in the Arctic region of Russia

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame

FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the incredible preservation of Lyuba, a baby woolly mammoth who lived approximately 40,000 years ago. Found in the Arctic region of Russia, this female calf met her untimely demise at just one month old, believed to have drowned in mud while crossing a river. Despite the passage of time, Lyuba's carcass remains astonishingly intact. Measuring 85cm high and 130cm from trunk to tail, weighing around 50kg, she is a testament to the wonders of nature's frozen embrace. Every detail has been remarkably preserved - her skin, hair, eyes, and even internal organs are still discernible. This remarkable find provides invaluable insights into the life and biology of these ancient creatures. Woolly mammoths roamed our planet during the Ice Age but sadly became extinct roughly 10,000 years ago. The discovery of Lyuba offers scientists an unprecedented opportunity to study these majestic beings up close and unravel their evolutionary mysteries. The photograph itself showcases Lyuba's mummified form against a horizontal backdrop. It serves as a poignant reminder of Earth's rich history and highlights humanity's ongoing fascination with paleontology. Captured by Science Photo Library in May 2007 after being stumbled upon by a hunter on the Yamal Peninsula; this image stands as an enduring symbol of scientific curiosity and exploration.
