PLACENTAL CARNIVORES, PAST AND PRESENT

Placental carnivores are a division of meat eating mammalian including
those that have a placenta. Two major groups of placental mammals made
the transition during the Paleocene the now extinct creodonts ( Order
Creodonta) and the true carnivores (Order Carnivora) that flourishes
today. I'll be looking at the similarities and differences in
phylogency, habitat, classification and the evolution of the two orders
. As well as the reasons the creodonts became extinct.
