Explanation:

- Option 1: High

- Generally refers to vertical extent or height above ground level. However, it is not commonly used to describe the size of animals in terms of their height.

- Option 2: Low

- Refers to being at a small height and doesn't fit logically to describe large mammoths.

- Option 3: Huge

- Used to describe something very large or even gigantic, which suits to quantify the impressive size but not the exact logical measure for height.

- Option 4: Lofty

- Means of imposing height and grandeur, perfectly describing the towering size mammoths might capture.

- Correct Answer:

- Lofty is the right choice, as it conveys the grand stature of the mammoths in a way that matches their towering physical dimension.
