  The mummified creature is helping to heal the rift between the Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in people and the miners and scientists who came to their lands The trunk, ears and tail of this baby woolly mammoth, named Nun cho ga, are almost perfectly preserved.  Government of Yukon On a drizzly June morning, Travis Mudry, a miner working in the Klondike goldfields of Canada’s Yukon territory, cut into a wall of permafrost, or permanently frozen earth.

Along with the muck emerged something strange: the remains of a dark, shiny animal with short legs. Suspecting he’d found a mummified baby buffalo, Mudry began inspecting the creature, noting its skin, fur and nub of a tail. Then he spotted a trunk. Mudry called his boss, Brian McCaughan, the general manager and chief operating officer of family-owned gold
