considering Megatherium is the size of an elephant, I'd probably go with it. |

IIRC Mediterranean islands also had dwarf hippos. And then there's the Hazteg Island fauna, most of which was made by tiny replicas of mainland dinosaurs. |

Now that I think about it, Europasaurus should be another example, but I'm not sure. |

Yes , i confirm Europasaurus is another example He has been identified as an example of insular dwarfism resulting from the isolation of a sauropod population on an island within the Lower Saxony basin |
