A woolly mammoth and a dwarf mammoth.
Insular Dwarfism is the idea that large animals with a limited amount of space will shrink and limited food supply over time. Examples of this are the Dwarf Sicilian Elephant, Telmatosaurus, Struthiosaurus, Pelecanimimus, Pygmy mammoth and Magyarosaurus. This is one of the main oppositions of Cope's Law.[1]
