Who: During the Ice Age there were two main kinds of homo, homo sapiens and homo neanderthals. Homo sapiens are the common humans you see today. On average, homo sapiens will live up to about 79 years. The maximum speed of a human is 28 miles per hour.
Studies have shown that homo sapiens evolved from East Africa, while homo neanderthals evolved from Asia and Europe. Neanderthals share some of the DNA in humans today. The homo neanderthals were basically the squatter and bulkier version of modern humans.
Woolly mammoths are the higher classification of elephants. Mammoths were shown to be well adapted to the cold environment that they lived in based upon the skin tissues scientists have found. The color of the mammoth's fur was a brown, orange- red, and black.
The saber-toothed tiger was a large 661-pound animal ready to pounce at any second, and it lived to be around 20 to 40 years old. The animal got its name by its saber-like teeth, but the saber-tooth tiger wasn't like the modern tiger. They roamed around the plains of Asia. The short-faced bears were known to be the fastest bears on earth and they lived in North America. The short-faced bear was a long-legged animal with a short snout. Its long legs gave it the ability to be very fast.
