Yeah... Just like the 2012 movie when the Earth suffered a Cataclysm...
Oh wait... You mean the real world is different from movies?

I guess the key with the Wholly Mammoths is that they stayed frozen. And not just for the winter.
These incidences, which there appear to be many, would rot the following season. The WM did not. It stayed frozen for thousands of years.
Seriously: They would use them because their DNA has been frozen for thousands of years. It would be in much better shape than that of other remains.
They would have tried to clone that Ice Man they found in the Alps, except his DNA is pretty much ours.
The article I saw in a newspaper (BI; before internet) had a picture of a frozen cow, still standing in the the barnyard.
Yes, true. Rapid change. Quick enough to kill, flash freeze to preserve, and then remaining frozen for millennia.
