  No, it wasn’t. Or to be exact, we don’t know, but it’s highly unlikely. In 2009, the bone growth pattern of Myotragus was thought to occur only in cold blooded animals, but in 2012 they found it is widespread in extant mammals as well.

    Oh, that’s good to know! I wondered how a cold-blooded mammal could be a thing.

  TIL there was a 5M year old cold-blooded mammal that humans killed off (but ofc).

    I actually missed the part that we killed them off. “Heh heh, look at the funny-faced little goats Let’s kill 'em!” Jerks.

      Probably because of capitalism.
