One of California's most famous extinct residents. You can call one of these your own. Many people have been lucky enough to see the giant bones pulled from the La Brea Tar Pits or the statues outside the Page Museum. The Columbian Mammoth was one of the largest species of elephant to walk the Earth. 13 feet at the withers and weighing 10 tons with the most impressive tusks, it would have been a sight to behold.
