An archeological field worker shows a 10,000-year-old spear point later found to have traces of woolly mammoth blood on it. The artifact was uncovered at an ancient stone quarry in northern Alberta.

a pristine spearpoint still smeared with the blood of a woolly mammoth... More mammoth DNA?? Hmmm.

I think "smeared" was a bit of hyperbole. :')

"Alberta after the retreat of the glaciers,...People first started coming into the area about 12,000 years ago" More likely that they were destroyed at the same time as the mammoths were, about 5,000 years ago.
They were covered by the rapid freezing and formation of these glaciers during the eruption of the fountains of the deep.
Woolly mammoths were not Arctic elephants. They are simply hairy elephants, not fury elephants, and elephants simply cannot survive in an Arctic environment.
Woolly mammoths are always found with lush tropical vegetation and other animals like Rhino's. This shows that the ice and rapid freezing came on suddenly, and fast froze these animals, often in their tracks with food still in their mouths. They are often so well preserved that the meat is still fresh.
See the studies of these interesting finds, which turns evolution theory upside down.

I have a knife with a handle made out of mammoth ivory. Hey, they're not making any more of it. I'll give it to my grandkids, if I ever have any.

I wholeheartedly agree.

Makes sense. Arctic animals are usually not large, well with the exception of polar bears. Most Arctic animals are small like ptarmigans.

Superb sample collection discipline for something you might want to run DNA or other organic analysis on... (NOT!)

My pleasure.
Probably this topic would be of interest to the hydrocarbon / energy list pingmeisters.

"

Woolly mammoths were not Arctic elephants. They are simply hairy elephants, not fury elephants, and elephants simply cannot survive in an Arctic environment." I have to agree, all arctic animals have dense, oily fur. The region could not have been frozen if any bare skin was exposed. Just another of the thousands of cases of evidence presented as favoring evolution that in reality demolishes it.

That looks like the kind of 'archeological field worker' I'd like to work with, if I were an archaeologist ;o)

Once they dig a little deeper, they'll find a tablets showing they were overtaxed and thought they could fix it with some kind of 'firewall' and a primative SUV (the cause of their destruction no doubt). :)
