Corrected entry: In various scenes throughout the film, herds of mammoth are seen galloping. This is a scientific impossibility - due to their large size and body plan, no elephant species can run (the definition being all feet are airborne at any given time) and are only capable of a very "fast walk".

Correction: Mammoths also did not grow to the size depicted in the movie, neither did Sabre Toothed Tigers. As per interviews with director Roland Emmerich, the movie is purely a fantasy and is NOT intended to be historically accurate. It's like saying 'Starships can't really go faster than the speed of light.'
