The Mastodon is an extinct mammal that belonged to a group of proboscis related to modern elephants. It lived in the Pleistocene and was characterized by its large cone-shaped tusks and robust body. Unlike mammoths, mastodons had a herbivorous diet that included tree leaves and branches. Its disappearance is attributed to factors such as climate change and human hunting.
