Physical characteristics:
Weight: 500lbs- 800lbs
Height:29in- 42in
They have lungs
Flat teeth
They can grip with their nose
Behavioral characteristics:
Live in grasslands or tropical forests.
Their trunk with which they can grip things they use to get the leaves off of branches and get to other delicious food. Tapirs eat once in the morning and once at night. Tapirs follow paths made by Tapirs to get to water and while they walk through the bushes they poop the seeds out with which they support the growth of plants. They like swimming a lot and use water to cool themselves off.They are herbivores

Physical characteristics:
Weight: 770lbs- 990lbs
Height: 50in- 60in
It is the largest of the wild "horses" (equids). Their stripes are narrower than the ones of other zebras and their ears larger.
Lungs
Flat teeth

Behavioral characteristics:
Live in grasslandsDifferent than my other examples Grevy's Zebras live in herds and so is a social animal. In the herds there are not many problems with dominance fights except for when a male comes near a breeding female which already has a male with territorial right. They are grazers and graze near water.They are herbivores

Physical characteristics:
Weight:  1760lbs- 3080lbs
Height: 4.5ft- 6ft
They have a pointed upper lip
Lungs
Flat teeth
Behavioral characteristic:
Live at the coast of Africa.
They are animals which walk around on their own most of the time. One of the exceptions would be a female and its offspring until it turns about three years old. The Black Rhino eats when the African sun is not shining really hot anymore but when the sun is going down or at night. During the day they stay in shadows or cover themselves in mud to cool themselves off.They are herbivores

The tapirs, the rhinoceroses, the horses. They all are in the same Kingdom, Phylum, Class and Order. Why is this significant? The taxonomy classifications go from really broad to really specific. As the Perissodactylae are in the same Order they definitely have some common ancestry. Some other proof of common ancestry is traits and characteristics they share. All the Perissodactylae are herbivores and do not have any collar bones for example. As they are herbivores they mostly digest with their intestines and less with the stomach. All of them like places with water and mud and their internal structures are very similar.

As their numbers are different it proves that even though in the same Order they are all from a different Genus and Family. Another important thing to notice is that even though they have a different number of chromosomes their karyotypes look very similar which can be used as evidence of evolution and their common relatedness]]> 2017-06-01 01:36:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ih657/oddtoedmammals/wish/174727589 ih657 https://padlet.com/ih657/oddtoedmammals/wish/174731572 https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Vladimir_Trifonov3/publication/8103754/figure/fig1/AS:277658547048449@1443210364369/Fig-1-G-banded-karyotype-of-a-male-black-rhinoceros-D-bicornis-2n-84.png]]> 2017-06-01 02:16:36 UTC https://padlet.com/ih657/oddtoedmammals/wish/174731572 ih657 https://padlet.com/ih657/oddtoedmammals/wish/174732625 The embryos of many organisms in the Order Perissodactyla look very similar supporting the reason they are in the sea order.

The organisms in the Genus Equus mate non-randomly which could show how rhinoceroses and tapirs are more closely related.
Artificial selection: Horses are often domesticated and owners normally who they mate with and just every decision for the animal which would turn that into artificial selection.
