Harvard University Museum of Comparative Zoology has the Harvard Mastodon,
found in New Jersey.

How many skeletons of mastodons and mammoths are in museums in US and World?

I read in a recent Discover magazine that attempts are being made in Japan to
clone or back breed mammoths for Pleistocene Park in eastern Russia.
