i remember reading how eskimos would wrap sharp bone fragments in balls of fat and leave them for polar bears… then they would follow the bears until
they died of internal bleeding.
Elephants (and mammoths probably) are also herbivores that chew their food. Sometimes that food is a whole tree. Using the polar bear sharp bone strategy would be like feeding a razor blade to a wood chipper.
Isnt there a similar thing where they put a blood soaked knife in the snow blade up and a wild wolf will come and lick the blood off, cutting their tongue on the blade and keep lapping at it not realising its their blood until they pass out.
That reminds me of how when there is a mosquito in your arm you can pinch the skin around it, trapping its sucker in your skin and at the same time violently blasting your blood into the mosquito until it’s too fat to fly.

elephants are much smarter than bears though.
Brutal
I mean, we wiped out mastodons completely: Humans can be like that sometimes.
I thought Twitter/X was the one being wiped out, not Mastadon
We go hard on Earth.
