Wrangel Island — The Last Mammoth Kingdom

Field notes

The project uses nine chapters, including “The final survivors,” “The lost kingdom,” and “If you want to go,” to join paleontology with present-day geography. Its source list points readers toward UNESCO, a genomic study, and Encyclopaedia Britannica, while the practical section identifies Anadyr and occasional Nome connections as departure points. The page distinguishes the island’s historical importance from the difficulty of reaching it: access depends on permits, ships, ice conditions, and a narrow seasonal window.
