cornbread Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Continuing with my ancient animals, and this family's love of elephants, I made a moeritherium (murry thear e um) or as we call him, Murry. This animal , the size of a large pig is also distantly related to the sea cow. There are 3 different artistic ideas what this animal looked like. They are 1) a long necked pig, 2) a Tapir or 3) something elephant like. All agree that there was probaly some flexible upper lip, and it had a few longer teeth that were not quite tusks yet. In my version, I was going for something in the tapir/elephant area. My 9 year old son, the elephant enthusiast, told me that it was a nice try. High praise from the expert 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
