The last deinothere species to become extinct was " Deinotherium bozasi ".
2.
All deinothere mandibles have the same basic anatomy, with a downturned symphysis, and lower incisors.
3.
Most differences of deinothere genera are in the P3 tooth morphology and dimensions of the mandible and teeth.
4.
Deinothere molars show little wear, indicating a diet of soft, nongritty, forest vegetation, with the down-turned lower tusks being used for stripping bark or other vegetation.
5.
With the end of the Miocene, deinothere fortunes declined . " Deinotherium indicum " died out about 7 million years ago, possibly driven to extinction by the same process of climate change that had previously eliminated the even more enormous " Indricotherium ".
