EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph illustration, titled "Horned Gopher, Ceratogaulus hatcheri," presents a fascinating glimpse into the prehistoric world. Depicted in vibrant colors, the extinct rodent, Ceratogaulus hatcheri, is shown with distinctive horns protruding from its head, giving it an otherworldly appearance. The Horned Gopher was a resident of the Pleistocene epoch, around 2.6 million to 11,700 years ago. This illustration was created by the skilled hand of F. John and published in "Tiere der Urwelt" or "Animals of the Prehistoric World," a renowned publication from Hamburg, Germany, in 1910. The meticulous attention to detail in the illustration allows us to imagine what this intriguing creature might have looked like in real life. Though Ceratogaulus hatcheri is now extinct, its legacy lives on through historical records and captivating illustrations like this one. The Horned Gopher, with its unique features, serves as a reminder of the diverse and ever-changing natural world that existed before us. This illustration is not only a testament to the rich history of natural history but also a beautiful work of art that continues to inspire curiosity and wonder.
