Well I'am assuming this question is asking for the second largest island in the world, so without including Australia because its a continent it would be New Guinea in the Southwest Pacific. The largest island is Greenland.

Borneo, the third largest island in the world, is shared among three nations. Malaysia's Sabah, Sarawak and Labuan occupy the northern part of the island along with the country, Brunei Darussalam while the southern part is Indonesia's Kalimantan. Number three of those island that are also classed as continents, Antarctica fills the bill.

Kodiak Island, Alaska

Kodiak is about 3580 square miles in size. It is just a little smaller than the "big island" of Hawaii (4000 sq mi), and a hair larger than the US Territory of Puerto Rico (3450 sq. mi.)
