About
Cynognathus
Cynognathus, an early mammal-like animal, would have looked a lot like a dog. Its name means dog jaw, because its mouth contained three distinct types of teeth, unlike reptiles whose teeth are usually all one uniform size.
It is believed that modern day mammals probably descended from Cynognathus.
