Zygomaturus - extinct Australian fauna blog

For people who are into dead animals but not in that way.

[zygomaturus]

With its homely, pushed-in face and solid, stout body, Zygomaturus is sometimes called the ‘marsupial rhino’. This nearly complete skeleton was found in Mowbray Swamp in Tasmania.

Zygomaturus was a robust herbivore that lived in the forested areas of southern Australia. It browsed on low vegetation near water.
