The mammoth was uncovered in the northern part of western Siberia in May after a reindeer herder found part of its ivory near the Yuribey River.

Estimated to weigh 50 kilograms and be 120 centimeters in height, it has been named "Lyuba" after the herder's wife.

Many American women wouldn't take too well to having their name applied to an animal resembling an elephant.

Why not? Many willingly shop at a place called "Dress Barn"!
