After the Age of Dinosaurs

Uintatherium lived approximately 45-40 million years ago during the Eocene Epoch—long after the dinosaurs disappeared. This was the age when mammals diversified and grew to fill ecological niches left vacant by the dinosaurs. Despite its fearsome appearance with multiple horns and saber teeth, Uintatherium was a peaceful plant-eater that used its tusks primarily for display and combat with rivals during mating season.

The name Uintatherium means "Uinta beast," referring to the Uinta Mountains in Utah where it was first discovered. Interestingly, despite its large size (about 13 feet long and 5 feet tall at the shoulder), Uintatherium had a remarkably small brain housed in its concave skull. Perfect for collectors who appreciate the incredible diversity of prehistoric mammals beyond the dinosaurs!
