Discuss the development of the various groups of small mammals during the Cenozoic. What will be an ideal response?
Small mammals include the insectivores, rodents, rabbits, and bats. These organisms have
developed a variety of strategies to survive. Most of the insectivores, including the shrews,
eat insects. Rodents represent a variety of organisms, including beavers. Part of their success
is due to the fact that they can eat almost anything. Rabbits are gnawing animals that evolved
separately from rodents. Bats adapted their forelimbs into wings.
