The answer is MASTODON.
Mammoths and mastodons are both extinct relatives of modern elephants, belonging to the same family, Elephantidae. While mammoths generally had long, curved tusks and a more shaggy appearance adapted for colder climates, mastodons were slightly different in build and habitat preferences. Mastodons typically had shorter, straighter tusks and were adapted to a broader range of habitats compared to mammoths.
Both species lived during the Ice Age but in different parts of the world, with mastodons being more widespread in North and Central America. The clue's use of "relative" cleverly suggests a connection through evolutionary lineage rather than direct similarity, making "MASTODON" the correct and fitting answer in the context of the puzzle's wordplay and the biological relationship between these ancient creatures.
