The supercontinent continued to dominate the planet into the Permian period; the range of habitats across this massive landmass ensured that different species thrived in different regions. The inner portions of the continent were deserts, with forests and swamps closer to the coasts. (PROSE: Prehistory Repeating Itself [+]Loading...["Prehistory Repeating Itself (feature)"])
