Prehistoric Mammals of Western Australia

[MaastrichtianGuy]

this book tells In 1909 a rich accumulation of many thousands of bones was excavated from Mammoth Cave in Australia¿s south-west. Many of the bones far exceeded in size any modern-day native mammal, evidence that in prehistoric times giant mammals had roamed the Australian bush. They included a marsupial the size of a buffalo, kangaroos more than two metres tall, wallabies much bigger than any living species, a marsupial lion about the size of a leopard, giant echidnas and wombats, plus the thylacine (Tasmanian tiger).
