Excerpt from Animals Before Man in North America: Their Lives and Times It is the aim of this book to picture the early life of our continent, to tell something of the fishes that once swam about its shores, the reptiles that splashed through the swamps, and the mammals that long ago roamed the Western plains. Books and museums and zoological gardens have made us familiar with the animals of the present, but we are apt to have rather vague ideas of the animals of the past. Whirling through New Jersey, the traveler notes in the morning paper that a mastodon has just been unearthed near New Brunswick, and may wonder how the landscape would look with herds of mastodons in place of the familiar cattle. The geologist might say that this was the case only a short time ago, while long before the same land was occupied by huge, unfamiliar reptiles.
