61:4.4 In general, the life of the preceding period continued to [[evolve]] and spread. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat cat] family [[dominated]] the [[animal]] life, and [[marine]] life was almost at a standstill. Many of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horses horses] were still three-toed, but the modern types were arriving; llamas and giraffelike camels mingled with the horses on the grazing plains. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giraffe giraffe] appeared in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa Africa], having just as long a neck then as now. In South America sloths, armadillos, anteaters, and the South American type of primitive [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monkeys monkeys] evolved. Before the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continents continents] were finally [[isolated]], those massive [[animals]], the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mastodons mastodons], migrated everywhere except to Australia.

61:4.5 5,000,000 years ago the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse horse] evolved as it now is and from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_America North America] migrated to all the world. But the horse had become [[extinct]] on the continent of its origin long before the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_64#64:6._THE_SIX_SANGIK_RACES_OF_URANTIA red man] arrived.

61:4.6 The [[climate]] was [[gradually]] getting cooler; the [[land]] [[plants]] were slowly moving southward. At first it was the increasing cold in the north that stopped [[animal]] migrations over the northern [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isthmuses isthmuses]; subsequently these North American land bridges went down. Soon afterwards the [[land]] [[connection]] between [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa Africa] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_America South America] finally submerged, and the Western Hemisphere was isolated much as it is today. From this time forward [[Different|distinct]] [[types]] of life began to [[develop]] in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Hemisphere Eastern] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Hemisphere Western Hemispheres].
