Project Overview

Elephantine mammals have come in an astonishing variety of forms in their tens of millions of years on earth: small, immense, woolly, hairy and equipped with many different kinds of tusks. Learn about their history and the bizarre ways that humans have understood and related to them. Were they really considered giant moles? Who ate mammoth meat? And which Founding Father hoped to find living woolly elephants in North America? Join us as Reverend Matt answers these burning questions and more!
