GABI (IMAGE)
Caption
This graphic depicts North and South American mammals’ newfound homes after the Great American Biotic Interchange, or GABI. One consequence of GABI is that many South American mammals were outcompeted by the North American mammals, and animals originally from the north diversified much more than southern groups.
