Moschops
 


 

ANATOMY
Moschops was a large therapsid, an ancestor of the mammals. It walked on 4 legs; the front legs were sprawling but the rear legs were more column-like. It  was about 16 feet (5 m) long. This herding animal had a massive skull and
     may have engaged in head-butting (like modern-day rams).   Moschops fossils have been found in South Africa.
