The paper also includes a general discussion of the geological history of the Michigan area. The paper begins by exploring those animals which are now extinct.

From the Paper:

"It has been suggested that the mammoths and mastodons, in particular, were drawn to Michigan because of the many salt seeps and the many sources of shallow water, from which they could drink. These mammoths and mastodons may therefore have been migratory in their behavior, and stayed in the Michigan area due to the well-suited surroundings. Around 10,000 years ago, these large mammals became extinct in the Michigan area (in common with their extinction in most of the rest of the world)."
