African elephant. Despite their name mammoth's weren't all that big: five to eight feet at the shoulder.
According to my sources (Which may be wrong, I grant.) They were up to 13ft, the dwarf species were 5 - 8. They were 6-8 tons, up to a big 10-12 for large males. The tusks were large at 16ft. But don't forget the hair was up to 20 inches long, and very thick with another 3 inches of skin under that, a bit like the blubber of whales. But the muscles in their body were very strong for even their big size, and had lived with extremely dangerous predators.
Size isn't everything.

∙ 9y agothe wooly mammoth would most likely win because siberian tigers usually fight in packs and if it was just one it would take a while for the tiger to breach the mammoths thick skin and the mammoth would eventually get lucky and pierce the tiger with its tusks

∙ 10y agoWoolly mammoths were not noticeably taller than Asiatic elephants. Woolly mammoths did weigh more than Asiatic elephants.
Some other species of mammoth, particularly the Songhua River mammoth (measuring 30 ft long, 17 ft tall, and 17 tons), were far larger than the woolly mammoth.

The Woolly Mammoth was 11' tall, weighed 6-8 tons. It was a whisker larger than a modern African Elephant, which is 10' tall, weighs 6 tons. However, some African Elephants can weigh up to 10 tons.
Both are larger than the Asian Elephant

∙ 13y agoNo. Elephants are in the family line of woolly mammoth, but they are different animals - in somewhat the same way that chimpanzees and gorillas are similar, but not the same family.
