Artist's Comments
The desmostylians Desmostylus hesperus (top) and Palaeoparadoxia tabetai, of the Miocene Pacific.
The desmostylians were strict herbivorous relatives of manatees and dugongs... They could be described as looking like pigeon-toed hippos who were in dire need of an orthodontist. Comments
 interesting critters. looked and lived like hippos but were related to sea cows and elephants.

-- I just noticed something. You have super powers. That is so cool. Can you fly? -Glorificus the Beast  Didn't they walk on the backs of their hands?
I'm not sure.
The skeletons of Palaeoparadoxia give me the impression that they were not landlubbers by any stretch. -- I just noticed something. You have super powers. That is so cool. Can you fly? -Glorificus the Beast  Palaeoparadoxia tabetai looks like a Miocene mammalian version of Placodus nostratus.
Good point.
Though, we can't tell if Placodus ate seaweed, too. We can tell that that the desmostylians only ate seaweed because their teeth have been chemically analyzed. -- I just noticed something. You have super powers. That is so cool. Can you fly? -Glorificus the Beast |
