. The story of the earth and man [microform]. Geology; Paleontology; Man; Géologie; Paléontologie; Homme. V THE MESOZOIC AGES. 203 ! :angaroo, but with slow and stately tread, occasionally resting, and supporting itself on the triped formed by its hind limbs and a huge tail, like uhe inverted trunk of a tree. The upper part of its body becomes small and slender, and its head, of diminutive size and mild aspect, is furnished with teeth for munching the leaves and fruits of trees, which it can easily reach with its small fore-limbs, or hands, as it walks through the woods. The outward appearance of these creatures we do not certainly know. It is not likely that they had bony plates like crocodiles, but they may have shone resplendent in horny scale armour of varied hues. But another and more dread- ful form rises before us. It is Mcgalosaurus or perhaps Lcclaps. Here we have a creature of equally gigantic size and biped habits; but it is much more agile, and runs with great swiftness or advances by huge leaps, and its feet and hands are armed with strong curved claws; while its mouth has a formidable armature of sharp-edged and pointed teeth. It is a type of a group of biped bird-like lizards, the most terrible and formidable of rapacious animals that the earth lias ever seen. Some of these creatures, in their short deep jaws and heads, resembled the great car- nivorous mammals of modern times, while all in the structure of their limbs had a strange and grotesque resemblance to the birds. Nearly all naturalists re- gard them as reptiles; but in their circulation and respiration they must have approached to the mam- Daalia, and their general habit of body recalls that of Pvi" h ' â â â.
