Beyond the game
The real Dromomeryx
It is classified among the artiodactyls of the family Dromomerycidae and is known from North America during the Miocene. These data allow us to place it in a place and in a branch of the history of mammals.
The article used for this entry does not give enough detail to specify its size, food or behavior. Those gaps remain visible here: invented details would make it harder to understand what is actually known.
This grouping describes evolutionary relationships. Its members share ancestors; they do not form a chain in which one must turn into another.
