Macrauchenia. Artist's impression of the extinct prehistoric mammal Macrauchenia. This herbivore lived 7 million to 20,000 years ago and descended from a group of extinct South American hoofed animals known as litopterns. Fossil evidence of the skull suggested that it had a long muscular proboscis on it's face. Macrauchenia was an extremely agile runner,able to twist and turn to avoid predators. It stood 1.5 metres tall at the shoulder | |
