FOSSIL - MEGACEROPS
[Completed - 20th November 2018]
The megacerops was a mammalian grazer with a Y-shaped horn on its nose.
It is a distant relative of the rhinoceros, which the horn helps give away.
Its main source of food was soft grass, but climate change caused this food source to disappear.
Ultimately, without a thriving source of fresh food, megacerops joined other creatures in extinction.
