Hypsodonty has been shown to be a spurious correlate to obligate grazing in previous studies on certain equid and proboscidean taxa as well. |

As humans moved north into Eurasia from Africa and, later, south from Alaska across the Americas, proboscidean range contracted correspondingly. |
|
If climate was the culprit, then people and proboscideans should have shared some of the same territory, at least until climate change shrunk proboscidean habitat. |
|
If people hunted these animals to extinction, the authors argue, the kill sites should appear along the border between proboscidean and human ranges. |

Barytherium is a genus of an extinct family of primitive proboscidean that lived during the late Eocene and early Oligocene ages in North Africa. |
|
The family tree of elephants, mammoths, and mastodons can be traced back 55,000,000 years to when the proboscidean order originated in Africa. |
|
The Mountain Breeze Site was identified by a portion of the articular end of a proboscidean long bone eroding out of an arroyo wall near Nogal, New Mexico. |
|
Leptarctus and the proboscidean taxon are both rare Great Plains taxa, and these specimens increase the amount of information that is already known from them. |
