Text Appearing Before Image:
FOSSIL INSECTIVORA 47 concealing themselves. The other Insectivora are inhabitants of the larger tropical islands—Cuba, Madagascar and some East Indian islands—or of South Africa, but have disappeared from the great northern continents, Europe, Asia and North America, where the struggle for existence has been most severe and where all the higher types of mammals have been evolved. The Insectivora are a very ancient order of mammals, and in past geological periods they were of more importance than now; in fact they have been considered by many scientists as represent- ing more nearly than any other living order the primitive central group from which all other mammals have descended. Through the "Age of Mammals" they progressed less than most other orders and several families of them became extinct during that time, while the Moles and Shrews diverged from nearly similar habits to their present peculiarities, and the Hedgehogs, prob- ably, acquired their coat of spines.
