Seeing through the eyes of the sabertooth Thylacosmilus atrox (Metatheria, Sparassodonta)
The evolution of mammalian vision is difficult to study because the actual receptor organs—the eyes—are not preserved in the fossil record. Orbital orientation and size are the traditional proxies for inferring aspects of ocular function, such as stereoscopy. Adaptations for good stereopsis have evo...
