Camel Racing Video Dental
Early camels were lightly built and resembled modern llamas.
Only two feet tall, perhaps 50 lb in weight and without any derived features, their eyes were located farther back in the skull when compared with those of modern camels. Their ribs were also much lighter. Poebrotherium had a split toe, a variation which would later evolve into a pad underneath these toes that is still seen in modern camels. Poebrotherium teeth are less hypsodont and more primitive than any other camelid except Poebrodon. They are small and have a hollow triangular cross-section which later evolved into more distinct dental variations adapted for plucking and grinding vegetation Teeth toward the front of the jaw are reduced in size and peg-like
The skull of Poebrotherium is approximately7 inches long and constructed of thin fragile bones. Because camel skulls are narrow and elongated,
most have broken cheekbones and orbits when found and complete skulls are a rare find.
