Abstract
Two Columbian mammoth specimens, one in California and one in Utah, show signs of advanced bone disease.
Observations of these specimens allow us to learn more about the progress of these diseases on surviving bone specimens. We can then apply this knowledge to our understanding of diseases that affect modern elephants.
