This is a question not yet to be answered precisely. Patiently and steadily thegeologists gather fresh evidence and reason out completer conclusions. At anytime some new deposit may reveal fossils that will illuminate this question.Certainly either mammals, or the ancestors of the mammals, must have livedthroughout the Mesozoic period. In the very opening chapter of the Mesozoicvolume of the Record there were those Theriomorphous Reptiles to which wehave already alluded, and in the later Mesozoic a number of small jawbones arefound, entirely mammalian in character. But there is not a scrap, not a bone, tosuggest that there lived any Mesozoic Mammal which could look a dinosaur inthe face. The Mesozoic mammals or mammal-like reptiles - for we do not knowclearly which they were - seem to have been all obscure little beasts of the sizeof mice and rats, more like a down-trodden order of reptiles than a distinct class;probably they Still laid eggs and were developing only slowly their distinctivecovering of hair. They lived away from big waters, and perhaps in the desolateuplands, as marmots do now; probably they lived there beyond the pursuit of thecarnivorous dinosaurs. Some perhaps went on all fours, some chiefly went ontheir hind-legs and clambered with their fore limbs. They became fossils only sooccasionally that chance has not yet revealed a single complete skeleton in thewhole vast record of the Mesozoic rocks by which to check these Ruesses.
