Description: One of the most primitive of the elephantomorphs, known for their modern constructions of skeletons revealed that mastodons are much more similar in appearances to elephants, to a lesser degree, mammoths, though not too closely related to either one. Mastodons on Earth have lived in North America, from Late Miocene to Late Pleistocene, 5.3-0.011 million years ago. The name, "Mastodon" meaning "Breast tooth," because their teeth, besides their tusks, are shaped like cusps, so that the teeth of Mastodons' are different from mammoths' and elephants', which is more suitable for chewing leaves and branches, from trees to shrubs. Unlike male elephants which they are solitary and lived alone from their herds of females, male mastodons lived in pairs, if they are both twin brothers. However, female mastodons lived in small herds, within several of their calves, all lead by a matriarch, a female leader who ruled the herd as alpha, if the matriarch is the most experienced, being the biggest, and/or the oldest. Female mastodons, like all pachyderms, are about 20% smaller than males. In planet Ingitiszoa, that these pachyderms are semi-domesticated, that these pachyderms developed their sheep-like wool for their bigger wool for bigger humanoids.
