Indricothere
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Indricothere are a group of extinct mammals of the genus Indricotherium that lived during the Late Oligocene and Early Miocene epoch between 30 to 10 Mya. They are thought to be the largest land mammals ever to have lived. They were related to the rhinoceros family, but were shaped more like giraffes. The best known indricothere is Baluchitherium.[1]
