Wikipedia
Mammutidae
Mammutidae is an extinct family of proboscideans that appeared during the Oligocene epoch and survived until the start of the Holocene. The family was first described in 1922, classifying fossil specimens of the type genus Mammut (mastodons), and has since been placed in various arrangements of the order. The name "mastodon" derives from Greek, μαστός "nipple" and ὀδούς "tooth", as with the genus, referring to a characteristic that distinguishes them from allied families. The genus Zygolophodon has also been assigned to this family. Mammutids ranged very widely, with fossils found in North America, Africa, and throughout Eurasia.

Mammutidae, commonly referred to as the mastodon, is a family of extinct proboscidean species that lived in North and Central America from late Oligocene to late Pleistocene. They resembled a woolly mammoth in appearance, typically characterized by their long curved tusks and conical bumps on their teeth. The species of Mammutidae were herbivorous animals, feeding primarily on a mixed diet consisting of leaves, twigs, and branches of trees and shrubs.
