I remember reading of an isolated population of mammoths on an island off Siberia, surviving well after the mainland population became extinct. The individual mammoths on the island became smaller in stature before finally going extinct.

The individual mammoths on the island became smaller in stature before finally going extinct. I believe the same thing happened on Islands off of the coast of California.
