Uintatherium

Paleoart digital painting.
Uintatherium is a genus of bizarre looking herbivorous mammals from the Eocene epoch.
This rare look like animals are part of the Dinocerata, an extinct order of mammals.
With a heigh of more or less 2 meters, Uintatherium are an impressive mammal for their size and appearance. Their unusual head is storng build and is crowned by horn-like structures.

Here I made some life-apperance pictures taking in consideration the skeletal info.
Paleoart is any original artistic manifestation that attemp to reconstruct or depict life from the past according to the current knowledge and scientific evidence at the moment of creating the artwork.
