Evolvems - Pakicetus-Squalodon		Pakicetus
Pakicetus-Squalodon is the first of Evolvems, evolutionary transforming plush toys, to be developed. Pakicetus-Squalodon represents an amazing evolutionary transition that led to all modern whales. Whales, which are mammals not fish, developed from land mammals that began to venture further and further into the ocean for a meal and protection from predators.

This is a time when there is an explosion of new mammals as life recovers from the extinction that killed off most of the dinosaurs. Pakicetus was mostly a land dweller who occasionally ventured into the ocean to catch his favorite meal, fish. Pakicetus, although he looks a lot like a modern hyena, is actually an ancestor of all modern whales. [Add to my Inquiry Basket][?] Shop for Pakicetus


Squalodon		Watch Video
Unzip and flip Pakicetus, and Squalodon shows his cute face. As Pakicetus and his descendants spent more time in the ocean they adapted over millions of years for life in the ocean. Toes became webbed. Legs got shorter and turned into flippers. Eventually tails developed and what we know today as whales and dolphins evolved. Squalodon is an early toothed whale and true king of his element. About the size of a shark he is a great sea hunter and enjoys his life of freedom in the open ocean.
