Sliced Tusk Of A Mammoth

View of the sliced tusk of a Mammoth, at the Field Museum, Chicago, Illinois. Tusk is sliced lengthwise showing layers of how tusks grow. [The inside of a mammoth tusk looks like a stack of ice cream cones. Tusks grow from the base and push outward, so the oldest layers, formed when the animal was young, are at the tip].
