Abstract
The beetles indicate that the climate at the time was about as warm as that in East Anglia at the present day with enough precipitation available during the summer months to maintain the varied marsh habitats. The scarcity of the wholly terrestrial dung and carcase beetles in this assemblage suggests that the mammoth cadaver probably finished up in its present location in such waterlogged conditions that there were no acceptable habitats available for them in the immediate vicinity.
