  • Diictodon had disproportionally large heads that ended in a horny beak. Both males and females had a pair of tusks sticking out from the upper jaw, with those of the male being slightly larger. Diictodon had strong arms and legs, as well as 5 sharp claws on each hand, and may have had keen senses of smell and sight. Their gait was similar to the 'high walk' of crocodiles. Their jaws were also simplified, with some of the bones dedicated instead to hearing, considered a key sign of mammalian adaptation. Diictodon also had many adaptations for digging, such as highly developed muscles, a cylindrical body, and wide hands.

  • Diictodon was a small burrowing reptile. It was also a mammal-like reptile, aka a forerunner to the mammals. Diictodon was a member of the dicynodonts, a subdivision in the Therapsids. They were large, herbivorous and successful in the Permian and Triassic. They also had two tusks, to help dig for roots and even for defence (or fighting rivals). Diictodon was a burrowing dicynodont. It was small, and lived in burrows underground. They were fast, with a long body (perfectly adapted for living in burrows).
  • Diictodon was a therapsid herbivore, closely related to mammals, from the Permian period.
