Description
Merychippus is an extinct proto-horse of the family Equidae that was endemic to North America during the Miocene from 20.43—10.3 Ma living for approximately 10.13 million years.[1] It had three toes on each foot and is the first horse known to have grazed. Its name means "ruminant horse", but current evidence does not support Merychippus ruminating.
Merychippus lived in herds. It was about 89 cm (35 in) tall;[6] at the time it was the tallest equine to have existed. The muzzle was longer, the jaw deeper, and the eyes wider apart than any other horse-like animal to date. The brain was also much larger, making it smarter and more agile. Merychippus was the first equine to have the distinctive head of today's horses.(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merychip… )
This reconstruction has been done by PS CS6 and Artrage4 based on the skeleton of animal.I hope you liked it.
