Global extinction 252 million years ago affected almost all representatives of flora and fauna. But recently discovered remains in Antarctica indicate that some animals escaped disaster in The most massive extinction in the history of the Earth occurred at the end of the Permian - early Triassic periods. Immediately after the rapid development of the animal world, a catastrophe broke out on the planet, destroying 90 percent of sea creatures and 70 percent of land ones. The dominant theory for these events is currently the assumption that a large meteorite fell to Earth. As a result, significant climatic changes began on the planet, leading to global warming. However, according to scientists, some animals escaped extinction by moving to cold regions like Antarctica, as evidenced by the discovery of the remains of distant relatives of mammals - anomodonts. These rather large theomorphic ("animal-like") creatures ate mainly plant foods. The largest number of their remains was found in South America, but some species lived in other regions of the world. "Anomodonts were the dominant herbivores on the planet," says one of the study's authors, Jörg Frebisch of the Chicago Museum of Natural History. "They united in groups and could exist in any conditions - burrowing in the ground, walking on the ground or climbing trees." antarctica differed from its relatives in its small size - it was no larger than a modern domestic cat. "However, these creatures were very different from mammals. They laid eggs, did not care for young animals and did not have any hair. It is still unknown whether they were warm-blooded," adds co-author and colleague of Frebisch Kenneth Angelchik.
