Return to the Ice Age with the Denver Museum of Nature & Science

Walk among the giants of the Ice Age in the new exhibit, Mammoths and Mastodons: Titans of the Ice Age, at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. Life-size models of Ice Age animals, fossil tusks and skulls, bring this fascinating time in Earth history back to life. Explore the differences between mammoths—beasts weighing up to eight tons, bearing tusks up to 16 feet long—and mastodons, their shorter, stockier cousins.

 Colorado’s point of pride is also on display. Relive the story of the Snowmastodon Project®, the  Ice Age fossil site unearthed near Snowmass Village in 2010. Visitors can see a selection of fossils on display for the first time and hear about the science that is emerging from the study of this historic site.
