English term or phrase: Mitten
Estratto da un libro per bambini sui mammut lanosi:

"They had flaps of skin on their trunks called mittens, which they used to warm the tips of their trunks and turn snow into water."

Praticamente i mammut lanosi avevano dei lembi di pelle sotto cui mettevano la neve per scioglierla e trasformarla in acqua, ma non riesco a risalire al termine tecnico.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Mi servirebbe capire se esiste anche in italiano un termine tecnico per "mitten" perché questa frase è riportata nella sezione dei veri dati scientifici che si trovano alla fine del libro.
