How to use mammalian in a sentence?

1. Ross MacPhee:

   Despite their ungainly appearance, different species of glyptodonts occupied habitats as distinct as open grassland and dense woodland, all the way from Patagonia to the southern parts of the continental United States, although their disappearance has been blamed on human depredation as well as climate change, some species persisted into the early part of the modern or Holocene epoch, long after the disappearance of mammoths and saber-toothed cats. Like the loss of giant ground sloths, mastodons, and dozens of other remarkable mammalian species, the precise cause of the New World megafaunal extinctions remains uncertain.

2. Julia Tejada:

   These results, providing the first direct evidence of omnivory in an ancient sloth species, demands reevaluation of the entire ecological structure of ancient mammalian communities in South America, as sloths represented a major component of these ecosystems across the past 34 million years.

3. Gerald Keusch:

   Based onnodata, but simply [a] likely scenario is thatthe virus went from bats to some mammalian species, currently unknown despite speculation, [and] spilled over to humans.

4. Ruth Feldman:

   Maternal deprivation during the critical post-birth period carries detrimental long term effects for all mammalian young, provision of the mother’s physical proximity can counter some of the adverse side effects of premature birth.

5. Patrick Aust:

   The source is most likely mammalian, probably bats but other suspects too, including pangolins.
