Description
Description

The Cyprus Dwarf Elephant (Palaeoloxodon Cypriot) is an extinct species that inhabited Cyprus Island during the Late Pleistocene up until approximately 11,000 BC. The molar analogy confirms the suggestion that the genus evolved from the long protruding straight-tusked elephant, whose much smaller animal populated Cyprus and some other Mediterranean islands during the Messinian salinity crisis, during the late Pleistocene. The total body weight was just about 200 kilograms. Studies show that the Cyprus Dwarf Elephant stood tall at 4 to 5 feet hence the name Dwarf. The Cyprus Dwarf Elephant can be compared to current newborn elephants in size.
