Sousei no Taiga - Vol. 5 Ch. 41 - Eastern Tribe

Honestly, a small group of mammoths as pets/mounts/attack animals sounds like it would be nearly unbeatable in this time period. But feeding them would be nearly impossible.
So if you can't feed them? Eat them.
 
Mammoths living in forests is just plain wrong. He should have made them mastodons, palaeoloxodon or gomptheres instead.
I have no idea why this bothers me so much, maybe because their is actually more scientific accuracy in this manga, than in most.
 
this whole mammoth thing reminds me that my lil bro used to call a pig a nose-less elephant 😅

"A species of Wooly mammoth was done in by a bad case of toothache"

That could be a contributor. Mastodon literally means "nipple tooth" and their teeth were highly specialized for eating trees. However, mastadons weren't a species of mammoth, they were very different. On the Proboscidea phylogenetic tree, Indian and African Elephants are far closer related to mammoths than mastodons were.
 
Of course Ren is not here, he's probably staying behind again to be protected while lecturing MC afterwards.
