Extinct mammal resembling an elephant (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mastodon

(Other definitions for mastodon that I've seen before include "dead hairy beast" , "Extinct mammal like an elephant" , "Extinct elephant-like mammal" , "giant from the past" , "Prehistoric creature" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
