Leptictidium

The Leptictidium (leptictidium tobieni) was a little, furry mammal that lived in the Eocene period. They lived in Germany approximately 49 million years ago. Their main enemies were the Ambulocetus and the Gastornis, two very formidable predators, which meant they always had to stay alert for the slightest sign of danger. They fed on small creatures, such as bugs and small lizards. They would hop out of their nests and explore around, hunting for prey, until they found a nice meal to bring back to their families.

They usually grew to be 90 centimeters long. Leptictidium were pleasant, agile creatures, but unfortunately they were wiped out when the dense tropical rainforests they depended on were no longer available.
