A perfectly preserved Ice Age wolf was unearthed in Russia (Credit: North-Eastern Federal University/ CC-BY-SA-2.0)

A mummified adult wolf could offer scientists valuable insights into the late Pleistocene era (129,000 to 11,700 years ago). The animal was buried in thick permafrost for over 44,000 years. It was unearthed by the residents of Sakha, Russia, in 2021. The specimen boasted well-preserved teeth, fur, and internal organs, including the stomach. It was the first complete adult wolf found from the late Ice Age.

    That’s BC time if you do the math, but I just think that sounds like easy time because a couple months ago or like last year I don’t know but scientist made something called a dire wolf that was extinct 400 years ago They cloned it like Jurassic World

                        Mummies do not decompose because they are preserved through either intentional or accidental processes that remove moisture and prevent bacterial growth. This happen through desiccation (drying out the body), extreme cold, low humidity, or lack of air, all of which inhibit the decay process!
