In Depth
Stahleckeria is a genus of very large dicynodont therapsid that lived in both South America and Africa. Like other dicynodonts, Stahleckeria was a herbivore that ate low growing vegetation. When fully grown Stahleckeria would have had few predators, though large rauisuchians would have still been a potential threat.
