Notharctus
45
million years ago
Your
great-times-a-very-high-number-grandparent would have resembled a modern-day
lemur. Cute, eh?
Your
Ancestor's Profile Notharctus would have been similar to living prosimians like lemurs.
(A prosimian is a lower primate.) It would have weighed perhaps two to four pounds, which is
about the same as a golden bamboo lemur. It lived in western North America about 45
million years ago.
