This project investigates the relationship between diet and tooth morphology in ungulates, using goats, giraffes, and black rhinos to understand tooth wear patterns. It aims to enhance palaeontological reconstructions and improve the welfare of captive ungulates through better dietary management.
This project combines different analyses of dental morphology with experimental animal husbandry to improve both the ability of palaeontologists to reconstruct past environments and to improve the welfare of ungulates in captivity.
Specifically, this project will test the effect of different diets on tooth morphology and wear (both in terms of changes in tooth shape, and in terms of absolute dental tissue loss) using experimental data that are rarely available for dental research.
