The Canadian mammoth, (Mammuthus canadensis) (literally, "African ancestor mammoth"), is among the oldest of mammoth species, having first appeared around 3 million years ago during the Pleistocene. Its fossils have been found in Toronto,Alberta,Yukon,Mexico. It was relatively small and is seen as the direct ancestor of M. meriodionalis, although its tusk diverged more widely from its skull than later species of mammoth, which might indicate that it was an evolutionary dead end.
