DOI: 10.1007/s10914-017-9424-7
Abstract: Extant hyraxes are small, rabbit-sized, herbivorous paenungulates, with a notable feeding mechanism: they crop with the molars instead of the incisors, unlike most modern hoofed mammals. We investigated the postnatal development of the skull, and… read more here.
