Waco Mammoth National Monument, Texas By Aaron Johnson, Joel Anderson, 2024
- Waco Mammoth National Monument, Texas
This educational national monument was created in 2016 to preserve the incredible history of North America’s now-extinct mammoths. Waco Mammoth National Monument sits within 100 acres of a beautiful wooded parkland along the Bosque River. Surrounded by oak, mesquite, and cedar trees, the site offers an escape from the modern world and provides a glimpse into the lives and habitats of Columbian mammoths and other Ice Age animals who once roamed this landscape. This park is located in Texas, but the mammoth lived as far north as now-Canada and as far south as now-Costa Rica. Celebrating the park, this national monument design and vintage poster art makes for perfect home or office decor. It also serves as an excellent national park gift for the travel enthusiast in your life. As an original illustration, the design will look great as an unframed print, framed poster, notecard, postcard, metal sign, canvas, or mini canvas. Available in multiple size options, this hand-rendered nature illustration is fashioned in the style of 20th-century vintage art and the iconic travel art that first promoted the national parks and national monuments. For trip-planning, fun facts, helpful resources, and important conservation information for this park and so many other beautiful national parks, monuments, and wilderness areas across the U.S., check out the website for the National Park Foundation.
