Everything about Elephas Falconeri totally explained

Elephas falconeri is an extinct Siculo-Maltese species of elephant closely related to the modern Asian elephant. In 1867 George Busk had proposed the species Elephas falconeri for many of the smallest molars selected from the material originally ascribed by Hugh Falconer to Elephas melitensis. This island-bound elephant was an example of insular dwarfism, reaching only 90 cm (3 ft) in height. E. falconeri's ancestors most likely reached the Mediterranean islands it was found on because of the low sea level during the Ice Ages.

In popular culture

The dwarf elephant is one of the 36 animals featured in the video game .
