It is an important part of understanding our history. The mammal story is a bridge from the timeline of life to the story of humans. In the time since the dinosaurs became extinct, mammals have undergone tremendous changes. The timeline of life usually has such a short portion for the Cenozoic Era that few of the amazing mammals can be shown. As you tell this story, you will also introduce children to the major lineages of mammals and to important principles of evolution.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis material is available as files that you print.
