^^^ That meme maker knows nothing about Bergmann’s Rule. 

Ecologically, there would certainly be large animals living near The Wall and north of it. The Night’s Watch would be among the few who could hunt on both sides of The Wall.

While Samwell may not be the world’s greatest hunter, his abundance of knowledge as an assistant to Maester Aemon (as well as just being an intelligence nerd) probably made him a useful source of information on plants and animals.

While life was probably not easy at Castle Black, it didn’t look like they were on starvation diets.

Has it ever occurred to anyone that mermaids would probably have to be gigantic?

Because they have human proportions and no blubber to retain body heat, the only other way for them to maintain core temperature would probably be to have a much larger volume-to-surface area ratio, and unlike landbound giants they'd have the benefit of water support for the exponential weight increase.

Giant mermaids. It's science.
