Elf owls are the world's lightest owls - they are extremely small, weighing in at 1.4 ounces. They are only about 5 inches long, and their wingspan averages in at around 10 inches.
By comparison, great horned owls are one of the larger owl species. They weigh in at around 3 pounds (48 ounces) on average, with a wingspan of a little over four feet.
Basically, by weight, a great horned owl weighs around 34 times more than an elf owl, and its wingspan is a little more than 4 times as wide.
Well, considering Elf owls are the smallest species of owl, and Great Horned are the largest... I'd say no comparison. The little elf owl is only probably as big as your hand, and the Great Horned owl is as big as an eleven year-old leg.
The smallest owl is the Elf owl. There are three largest owls, the Great Horned owl, the Eagle owl, and the Great Gray owl.

Yes, that is true. Think about it, an Elf owl can't eat as much as a snowy owl, or a Great Horned owl. Therefore, an Elf owl has to eat less, hence, smaller amount of undigestables in the stomach. Then this will result in a smaller Pellet. I hoped that this helped!

No, an elf owl is not a carnivore. Elf owls are small nocturnal birds that primarily feed on insects such as moths, beetles, and other small invertebrates. They are classified as insectivores, not carnivores.
