    No, I'm not a creationist.
    I discussed it with Darren Naish, an excellent paleontologist (Tetzoo.com).

    Notice that the scientist writing the paper establishing that mammoths were not cold adapted was a highly regarded specialist and his paper was held in high enough regard to be published in a prominent French journal in 1919 and the Smithsonian annual
    report in 1921.
