Scientists have performed a necropsy on a 50,000-year-old baby mammoth discovered in Siberia.

The female mammoth, nicknamed 'Yana', is believed to be the best-preserved mammoth ever found and one of only seven whole remains.

Yana was discovered in the permafrost-covered region of Yakutia, Siberia, where it had been kept in excellent condition by the extreme cold. (Daily Mail)
