Prodeinotherium (pro "before" and Deinotherium "terrible beast") is an extinct genus of proboscidean belonging to the family Deinotheriidae. Prodeinotherium reached the size of the current Asian elephant, measuring about 3 meters at the shoulders, but differed from elephants by having a pair of downward-facing tusks in its lower jaw.
