		<description><![CDATA[The two contrasting comments regarding British mammoths are amusing: 

&quot;he has been able to establish that the mammoth survived in Britain until 14,000 years ago, long after the glacial maximum at around 21,000 bp, which was previously thought to have killed them off&quot;.  

And: 

&quot;This later date is believed to correspond with the theory that the warming climate and ensuing loss of habitat accounted for the demise of the mammoth&quot;.  

One minute they died out through being too cold.  The next because they were too hot.  Surely they&#039;d survived both extremes several times.  Let&#039;s adopt any theory as long as it allows us to avoid the conclusion of &#039;their suffering an extinction event at the hands of overly enthusiastic Pleistocene hunters&#039;.  Very interesting attitude.]]></description>
