It's hard to imagine the size of these until you see them next to the elephant.

Hi Gayle, the small one at the front is actually a Pygmy Mammoth, the second biggest one is the modern day African Elephant. The exhibit doesn't show the even bigger Steppe Mammoth though. This image shows a comparison of more mammoths types than the exhibit
