Meet the Megafauna!

Get to know 20 of the largest animals to ever roam the Earth!

By Gabrielle Balkan

Illustrated by Quang and Lien

"The Terror Bird, the Supercroc, the Wooly Mammoth, the Giant Sloth-move over Dinosaurs. Megafauna are mega-cool.

Imagine a deer with antlers that are twelve feet wide. Or a snake so big it can swallow a crocodile whole. Each is classified by scientists as a "megafauna." Growing to ginormous proportions because of the abundance of food, habitat, and oxygen available during earlier geologic periods, megafauna are the supersized versions of some pretty familiar animals: giant pigs, giant sloths, giant turtles. A few megafauna are even still around! In fact, the very largest animal ever to live on earth, the blue whale - whose tongue alone can weigh 6,000 pounds - swims in the ocean today. 

Discover twenty of the biggest megafauna in this visually striking and highly informative guide that takes us back through the eons to explore some of the most fantastic creatures to ever roam the earth."
