They occupy different niches in the natural environment. For elephants, being larger was a survival trait. For guinea pigs, a higher reproductive rate was an adaptation. Most guinea pigs would not survive in the elephant's native lands, and the elephant might starve in areas where there is only enough food for smaller mammals.
