Part 2/9:
You arrive in prehistoric Australia during the late Pleistocene, a time that spanned from roughly 126,000 to 12,000 years ago. Upon stepping onto the sandy shores, you're immediately confronted by the intimidating pinnacle of prehistoric animals. Among these giants lies the Diprotodon, the largest marsupial to have ever roamed the Earth. This massive herbivore, weighing in at almost a ton and measuring up to 3.8 meters long, would not pose an immediate threat to humans but could definitely reshape the environment. The Diprotodon played a crucial role in seed dispersal, eating and pooping vast amounts of plant matter across the landscape.

As menacing as the Diprotodon may seem, other inhabitants of the prehistoric landscape present a much more direct threat.
