Phylogenetic trees allow us to organize all of life onto a single tree based on a common feature that all of life shares, to understand how things are related. We can also create specialized trees that map the evolutionary history of a specific species, such as mammals or reptiles. There are three features of a phylogenetic tree that must be understood: first, a phylogenetic tree depicts the common ancestry of the species that we are studying, whether it be all of life or just mammals. Second, there
Placental Ruminants and Herbivorous Marsupials of Australia The marsupial animal species that have evolved on the isolated continent of Australia are unique compared to the rest of the animal kingdom in many ways due to the harsh and distinctive environment found on the continent. The major area of marsupial biology that distinguishes them from all other eutherian mammals is their mode of reproduction. However, it can be said that there are many other areas in which unique differences can
AJP is aghast at the disregard displayed by all governments towards the kangaroo and wallaby species. IT will offer an enlightened and rational approach to wildlife by designing policies and guidelines that respect kangaroos, wallabies and other macropods for their own worth and maintain their basic needs The AJP will actively work
