Dinotherium

/ˌdaɪ.noʊˈθɪr.i.əm/ noun

Definition

A large extinct mammal with a trunk and downward-pointing tusks that lived millions of years ago.

Etymology

Greek 'deinos' (terrible) + 'therion' (beast), named in the early 19th century when fossils were first scientifically described.

Kelly Says

Imagine a creature as big as an elephant with tusks that hung down like weird tusked icicles—paleontologists think they used these to dig up aquatic plants from riverbanks, making them the first 'underwater excavators.'
