 The Miocene epoch saw major climate and ecological changes in terrestrial ecosystems. These changes were reflected in the diversification of rhinoceroses, which were abundant and diverse in the fossil record. In this study, researchers examined the spatial, temporal evolution of rhinoceroses paleoecology during the early and middle Miocene in Europe and Pakistan. They found that some species had similar diets, while others had different diets. This suggests that there may have been niche partitioning among species. Additionally, the presence of hypoplasia, a type of wear on teeth caused by stress, was used to determine how environmental conditions influenced the animal's behavior. The study concluded that the prevalence of hypoplasia varied depending on the locality, species, and tooth location.
