...woolly mammoth-like... That doesn't sound like a real woolly mammoth to me.

Creatures and plants become extinct for a reason. Best to not recreate what God allowed to be eliminated.

You just know there are some high-fence safari ranches in Texas that are champing at the bit to be able to sell a Woolly Mammoth hunt.
And what better to cap off your first Woolly Mammoth hunt than a new 4-bore double rifle from Ken Owen?
Just don't wait to long. Ken is getting up in years and likely to become extinct himself before long.

They need two little tusks and a prehensible nose.

Woolly mice, great. Maybe they will be happy to spend winter outside, instead of invading my house every Sept.
Woolly mammoths might be useful in the Arctic of US and Canada if they could be trained like Asian elephants.

There's a Bear Cavalry, so why not a Mammoth Cavalry? ;)

Buy a more sensible, plain old big game rifle with your money-a mammoth hunt is not likely to happen here unless we have another ice age, since it does not get cold enough or snow enough to support a woolly anything of any size in Texas...

There are people who buy mice bred for certain colors, etc to keep as pets-I’ll bet a lot of money can be made by pet stores, selling these woolly mice-they look like tiny guinea pigs, and are actually super cute for a rodent-but I think my cats would still see them as a prey item, never mind the cute...

I’m not familiar with hamsters, but those are adorable-most folks out here who are rodent lovers are also cat and dog lovers-they have guinea pigs rather than hamsters, rats/mice because they are bigger and a bit less likely to become prey for the cats and dogs...
