Causes of mass extinctions

Both models (pre-flood and post-flood) leave the mammoths in the permafrost or glacial ice, as they must for there they are found. Some of the mammoths have been found in riverbeds where they got stuck and died which seems to indicate they were not killed in a flood. I don't think many creationists believe the polar ice caps existed prior to the flood. So the most common belief among creationist would be that the mammoths died post-flood. However since none of us were there, and it is not recorded in God's Word, all we can do is speculate.

By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1}

I have not studied that issue. I have heard it speculated that it happened during the flood which would be consistent with the creation model. However creationists speculate. That is what they do and that is why what they do is not considered science. They use science to speculate but that is not the same as "doing" science.

I would have thought it was made that way... an untilted pre-Flood earth would have broad hellish tropics and poles with only narrow temperate livable zones. Doesn't sound very Edenic.

The creationists I have read put a lot of importance on the firmament which they believe was a vapor barrior that served as a type of greenhouse which distributed the heat evenly so the temperature at the poles were about the same as the equator. I am not sure how that would have worked.

Of course, following that assumption, it would make sense that God would have tilted the Earth's axis after destroying the firmament. That is why I commented that it is consistent with the creationists' model. I would be interested in what GRI thinks about the subject.
