So having this information allows us to answer one of the interesting relationship questions between mammoths and their living relatives, the African and the Asian elephant, all of which shared an ancestor seven million years ago, but the genome of the mammoth shows it to share a most recent common ancestor with Asian elephants about six million years ago, so slightly closer to the Asian elephant.
Pra, duke pasur kete informacion na lejon ti pergjigjemi nje prej pyetjeve interesante mbi lidhjen ndermjet mamuthit dhe fisit te tij ekzistues, elefantin Afrikan dhe Aziatik, te cilet ndanin te njejtin stergjysh shtate milion vite me pare, por gjenomi i mamuthit tregon ndarjen e nje stergjyshi me te vonshem te berbashket me elefantet Aziatik rreth gjashte milion vite me pare, shume i afert me elefenatin Aziatik.
