The average size of the mammillary bodies in humans is about 10-12 millimeters (mm) in length and 6-8 mm in width.

In sheep, the mammillary bodies are also small, oval structures located at the base of the brain. However, they are typically larger than the mammillary bodies in humans. The average size of the mammillary bodies in sheep is about 15-18 mm in length and 10-12 mm in width.
