Great to see this collaborative study published that recovered 20 Ma old proteins from tooth enamel of a fossil rhinocerotid!

Very exciting to see this long-term collaboration published!
🦏🦣🦌 LARGE paper alert!!! We tracked 60 million years of large herbivore evolution—over 3,000 fossil species—to uncover how ecosystems have changed and reorganized through time. What we found might help us understand the next big tipping point 🧵👇
