Neck mobility, Grazing habits, and intraspecific combat behaviour in the Giant Pleistocene horned Turtle Meiolania Platyceps

Neck mobility, Grazing habits, and intraspecific combat behaviour in the Giant Pleistocene horned Turtle Meiolania Platyceps

Meiolania platyceps is the stratigraphically youngest, and osteologically best-known members of the enigmatic Paleogene-Holocene testudinatan clade Meiolaniidae. This study generated digital reconstructions of intervertebral mobility using the complete cervical series of M. platyceps as a functional...
