Amidst the grandeur of the Lake Superior School of Magic, the noble Mammoth House stands as a bastion of compassion, generosity, and unwavering diligence.

The House colors of Mammoth House embody the essence of their virtues, combining the rich shades of red and black. Red symbolizes the fiery passion that burns within Mammoth House students, their unwavering dedication to making a positive impact on the world around them. Black represents the deep reservoirs of knowledge they draw from, symbolizing their unwavering commitment to diligent pursuits of wisdom and understanding.

Intriguingly, the Mammoths of legend are thought to be extinct by No-Majs, while, in reality, they are kept secret by MACUSA (Magical Congress of the United States of America). These magnificent creatures, known only to those within the magical community, possess remarkable characteristics and play a vital role in the ecosystem.

Mammoths sustain themselves on a diet primarily consisting of algae. They possess a unique ability to consume vast quantities of water, holding thousands of gallons in their stomachs until they have absorbed all the nourishing algae within it. Once the algae have been completely absorbed, the water is released back into the environment through their trunks. These majestic creatures are known to form herds, capable of draining entire lakes dry as they diligently satisfy their need for sustenance. However, due to the length of time it takes for them to finish consuming the water, localized flooding may occur as the herds may not always be near a lake when they release the water, contributing in part to the declining water levels in the great lakes.

Within the Mammoth House, students embody the virtues of their namesake creatures. They possess an innate compassion and a genuine desire to make a positive impact on the lives of others. Mammoth House students actively engage in acts of kindness, extend a helping hand to those in need, and advocate for fairness and justice. Their generous spirits create a warm and welcoming environment where everyone feels valued and supported.
