The plural form or zoological family name for baluchitheres; the group of extinct giant rhinoceros-like mammals.
Plural or family classification form derived from 'baluchithere,' following Latinized zoological naming conventions for extinct animal groups.
Baluchitheria represents a moment in paleontology when scientists realized that prehistory was wilder and more extreme than Victorian naturalists had imagined—these weren't just big animals, they were impossibly, almost absurdly enormous.
