He is a research associate of several museums. Mol's primary focus is on mammals of the Quaternary period, including mammoths and extinct rhinoceros species. BiographyEarly life and educationDick Mol was born in Winterswijk, Gelderland (The Netherlands), in 1955, as one of nine children, Mol could not afford to attend higher education after high school and he joined customs service in 1974. As the Netherlands implemented the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), Dick Mol was trained to be a CITES specialist, spending much time on the job studying bones, accumulating eventually ample knowledge to compensate for an academic career. CareerDick has catalogued fossil remains dredged from the bottom of the North Sea, and published over fifty papers on his finds.[2] Since 1990, he has been associated with The Mammoth Site, Hot Springs, South Dakota, collaborating with Larry Agenbroad on four papers dealing with field and laboratory research in paleontology, geology and paleoecology. In 1999, Dick contributed his expertise to the project for excavating the frozen remains of the Jarkov Mammoth led by Bernard Buigues, which was chronicled in the Discovery Channel's second highest-rated documentary “Raising the Mammoth".[3] Dick returned to Siberia several times, continuing the search and study of Pleistocene remains on the Taimyr Peninsula using an ice cave in Khatanga, Russia. He was also part of the team that recovered the Yukagir mammoth in Yakutia,[4] which has been on display at Expo 2005 in Aichi Japan[5] (Mol et al. 2006c). He is coordinator of the Cerpolex/Mammuthus program, “Who or What Killed the Mammoths”.[6] His goal is to learn more about all of the Pleistocene fauna that lived on the Pleistocene Mammoth steppe, which included the Taimyr Peninsula, but also the North Sea, the low countries and the UK. Throughout his career, Mol has cataloged numerous fossil remains dredged from the bottom of the North Sea. The last years he has been co-operating with Professor Evangelia Tsoukala in Greece, excavating mastodons in Greek Macedonia.[7] With Frédéric Lacombat he is studying the extinct Proboscidea of the Haute-Loire, Auvergne, France.[8] His work has brought him international recognition for his studies on Quaternary paleontology, the study of the Pleistocene and today's Holocene Epochs AffiliationsResearch associate at the
Scientific coordinator of the scientific programme “Who or What killed the Mammoths” (Saint-Mandé, France and Khatanga – Siberia, Russia) (since 1998) Personal lifeDick Mol is married to Friedje and has two children.
