I've posted on this before, and I think you responded. Some scientists believe, at most, the ice is only 80,000 y-o
Science, by its own definition, refuses to acknowledge any non- material / non-natural explanations, theshe scientists are not going to admit to any explanation that includes the supernatural, like the Biblical Flood, even though that does fit all the evidence that's been discovered.

E. Ysbrants Ides, Three Years [of] Land Travels from Moscow Over-Land to China (London: W. Freeman, 1706) English edition. In 1692, Russia’s Czar Peter the Great directed Ides to explore the vast eastern region of Russia. The natives told Ides (p. 26) that mammoth carcasses were found, “sometimes whole,” “among the hills [yedoma],” along four named rivers and the Arctic coast. The bones in one mammoth’s head were “somewhat red, as tho’ they were tinctured with blood” and a forefoot, cut from a leg, was as big around as a man’s waist.
u One of the earliest descriptions of frozen mammoths, written in 1724, was authenticated by Dr. Daniel Gottlieb Messerschmidt, a naturalist sent to Siberia by Czar Peter the Great to inquire, among other things, into the frozen mammoth stories. Although Messerschmidt did not personally see the frozen partial remains, his eyewitness, Michael Wolochowicz, described the find in a short report. The report’s credibility is enhanced by its similarity with many later, thoroughly verified accounts.

....provide interpretations that simply doesn't fit with all the evidence, as the global Flood does, accompanied by the resultant climate and geologic changes.
They never will accept an explanation that fits all the evidence comprehensively. (Unless they're from the Discovery Institute).
