Science Comics: Prehistoric Mammals travels from dinosaur-era survivors into jungles, oceans, deserts, and the Ice Age to ask how mammals spread into so many roles. Climate shifts and changing habitats drive the appearance of hooves, claws, tusks, large brains, and blowholes across the visual history.
The science inside
- Evolution & Adaptation
- Dinosaurs, Fossils & Paleontology
- Weather & Climate
- Ecosystems
Your child will meet:
- Mammal lineages survived the mass extinction that eliminated non-avian dinosaurs.
- Climate and habitat changes alter which inherited traits improve survival and reproduction.
- Hooves, claws, tusks, brains, and blowholes reflect different ways mammal lineages use their environments.
- Fossils and geological context allow scientists to reconstruct changes in mammals through deep time.
