Brasilodon - The Earliest Known Mammal On Earth
The first known mammal on Earth was Brasilodon quadrangularis, a small shrew-like animal that lived around 225 million years ago. This discovery predates the previously thought-to-be earliest mammal, Morganucodontids, by about 20 million years. Brasilodon possessed unique dental features, including a second set of teeth, which helped scientists classify it as a mammal.
