About Cuvieronius
Cuvieronius is an extinct New World genus of gomphotheres and is named after the French naturalist Georges Cuvier. Alive, specimens typically stood about 2. 3 m tall at the shoulder, weighed about 3. 5 t and would have superficially resembled modern elephants with spiral-shaped tusks.
