I am not a subject mater expert on this topic, but there is a recently built stub Trigodon that looks like it might be better addressed here. I leave it to editors with more knowledge then I to decide. Jeepday 18:01, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
No merge I wouldnt merge these because they are two completley different things. First of Trigodon is in the rhinoceros family which is an Odd-toed ungulate. Moeritherium is much more closley related to elephants and the two are completley different genus's. So I would have to say it wouldnt be a good merge.
No merge The article is for the genus Trigodon (species T. gaudryi) which is a notoungulate, not closely related to the species Moeritherium trigodon.
Not an elephant ancestor?
editThe article currently says that Moeritherium was not an ancestor of the elephant, though the assertion is not sourced, and this story flatly contradicts that statement. Could someone more knowledgeable about the subject straighten this out? Cheers, faithless (speak) 01:36, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
Should references to pigs and tapirs be removed?
editShould references to pigs and tapirs be removed since neither are related to moeritherium? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.154.245.138 (talk) 00:08, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
