EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Myotragus: The Enigmatic Extinct Antelope of the Balearic Islands" 2.. This print showcases the skeletal remains of Myotragus balearicus, an intriguing antelope species that once roamed the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean Sea around 6000 years ago. Myotragus is an extinct ungulate, belonging to the Artiodactyla order, specifically the Bovidae family, and the Bovid subfamily, Epitheriinae. The Myotragus skeleton, with its distinctive skull and horn, is a testament to the unique anatomy of this fascinating mammal. The skull, characterized by its elongated snout and prominent brow ridges, is a hallmark of the Bovidae family. The animal's single, twisted horn, which was present only in males, is a feature that sets it apart from other antelope species. As an even-toed ungulate, Myotragus had a four-chambered stomach, which allowed it to efficiently extract nutrients from the tough vegetation that dominated the Balearic Islands' landscape. The spine, with its numerous vertebrae, supported the animal's body and enabled it to move with agility and grace. Myotragus was a placental mammal, meaning it nourished its young through the placenta during gestation. It was part of the Therian superclass, which includes all modern mammals, and the Eutheria subclass, which includes mammals with a four-chambered heart and a well-developed placenta. Despite its intriguing anatomy and historical significance, Myotragus is now extinct. Its extinction remains a mystery, with theories suggesting habitat loss, climate change, or human activity as possible causes. This print serves as a poignant reminder of the rich biosphere that once existed and the importance of preserving the natural world for future generations.
