- Procoptodons were a genus of giant short-faced kangaroos living in Australia during the ice ages.
- Procoptodon goliah was mainly know for living in semiarid areas of South Australia and New South Wales. These environments were harsh, characterized by vast areas of treeless, wind-blown sand dunes. However, around Lake Menindee, in western New South Wales, had a cooler, wetter climate at the time Procoptodon existed. The surrounding area was a mosaic of sclerophyll forest, woodland, savannah and plains, but sand dunes would have also formed along the edges of the Menindee.[2] Australia was subject to a period of drying that started 700 ka and had a noticeable change from 350 to 400 ka. This might have been caused by a change in the glacial-interglacial cycles that was recorded by European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica, which occurred after 450 ka. Concurrently, from ∼450 ka, the is

Concurrently, from ∼450 ka, the isotopic minima, representing the coldest or full glacial stages recorded. Data also showed a conspicuously low temperature at about 70–63 ka. It is important to note two extended cold periods in one glacial cycle that happened about 800,000 y in Antarctic ice core record. The high-resolution EDC record also show a clear that there was marked aridification from ∼50–45 ka, the interval during which the first human arrived in Australia.
