Description: The American mastodon (Mammut americanum) was a large, elephant-like herbivore.
It ranged in height from approximately 7 feet (2.1 meters) in females, to nearly 10 feet (3 meters) in males; an adult mastodon could weigh as much as 6 tons (5400 kilograms). Its head was equipped with a flexible trunk, small ears, and tusks. The tusks grew straight forward, nearly parallel to one another, and curved slightly upward. Unlike modern elephants and extinct mammoths, the mastodon had cuspate molar teeth.
The name "mastodon" is a Greek derivative-mastos, "breast," and odon (t), "tooth"-that references the animal's teeth, which have crowns consisting of distinct rounded cusps.
