Generation
In EvilHack, woolly mammoths are only randomly generated in the Ice Queen's Realm.
Strategy
The woolly mammoth is the strongest member of the quadruped monster class in both variants by far, and can crush unwary characters in a matter of turns.
A somewhat common strategy for the Astral Plane known as "woolly rain" involves using a cursed scroll of genocide to generate woolly mammoths, then using them to clear out various monsters, similar to the "purple rain" strategy involving purple worms.
