Like modern elephant calves, mammoth calves would have been helpless alone. They depended on their mothers and other members of their herd for milk and later to know where food was, as well as protection from predators. They would have lived entirely dependent on their mothers for many years. Female mammoths would have stayed with the herd they were born in for their entire lives. Males would have left the herd when they were old enough to fend for themselves.
