Woolly Mammoth Carcass Goes On Display In Japan (VIDEO)

A 39,000-year-old Woolly Mammoth carcass, nicknamed Yuka, arrived in Yokohama, Japan on Tuesday.

The three-metre long female was discovered three years ago in Russia, but has made the trip to Yokohama for a special public exhibition.

It will be the first time the public have been allowed to see the carcass, whose body and fur is surprisingly intact, even after all these years.

But there are also some unanswered questions surrounding Yuka too, as her internal organs are missing, leading experts to speculate whether they were removed by ancient humans or by modern man using modern tools.
