Pygmy mammoths, scientifically known as Mammuthus exilis, are now extinct. Pygmy mammoths lived on the Channel Islands. The mammoths were only 4 feet tall. Pygmy mammoths were really good swimmers. Though the pygmy mammoths died out over 12,000 years ago, they are very cool and interesting. by Logan, Horace Mann Elementary School, Oak Park, IL USA
