Fun fact: Dire wolves were actually not wolves, as a study in 2021 shows this large and very common Pleistocene dog was actually part of its own genus, Aenocyon, not Canis. Some of its modern day relatives are notable for more reddish fur and even within Canis the integument can vary quite a bit. That's why I showed the animal here not as wolf like as it is usually depicted.

Dying Mammoth, Zdeněk Burian, c. 1962
The world felt ripped apart during the avalanche. The floor moved, the hillside was the sky, everything was white, and trees snapped like pencils. Instincts were useless. There was no way to fight or flee; the mammoth could only be swept up with the chunks of mountain and forest. A thick, broken branch punctured the mammoth's haunch. A boulder slammed into its ribs. Snow filled the animal's nostrils and ears. It was better that way.
When it was all over, and the world stilled, the mammoth was just a lump among all the other refuse. It could not move; it did not want to, really. Breaths were difficult under the blanket of tossed trees and snow. The ice darkened where the branch stabbed it. The stillness of the valley was eerie, especially after the roar of the avalanche. The only sounds were of the mammoth's labored inhalations. When the wolves found it, those breaths had already stopped.

Just a girl and her dragon with a boy and his dire wolf. Wasn't it a shame the TV series just stopped after 4 seasons?

Oh well. At least it didn't continue, deviate from logic, insult the actors who poured their souls into the roles, and end in a way that dissatisfied everyone. That would've been horrific.
