Show Reptiles In th Mesozoic Epoch. Early in the mesozoic epoch there appeared ap-peared marine reptiles which, fhough derived de-rived from land species, became more and more aquatic through the necessity of living liv-ing in water, developed on that account swimming organs, etc. Land reptiles also began to develops in huge proportions. Why they grew so big no one knows, bnt it may have been because they had no rivals in the struggle for existence; they had all they wanted to eat and naturally nat-urally increased in bulk. At all events no creatures are known to have existed in this world comparable in size to these reptiles of ages ago. Interview in Washington Wash-ington Star . |
