Ancient feeding ecology inferred from stable isotopic evidence from fossil horses in South America over the past 3 Ma
[Background]: Stable isotope ratios (13C/12C and 18O/16O) in fossil teeth and bone provide key archives for understanding the ecology of extinct horses during the Plio-Pleistocene in South America; however, what happened in areas of sympatry between Equus (Amerhippus) and Hippidion is less understoo...
