The name "start", chosen by who worked on the movie, probably comes from the Moeritherium's nature of being "at the start" of the proboscidean's evolution.Īdditionally, they, like many of the animals featured in the Ice Age films, are not actual creatures of the ice ages, but rather the era preceding them, approximately 35 million years back, lived in warm places, in Northern Africa, and were semiaquatic.Download Ice Age Continental Drift wallpaper The starts bare a strong resemblance to modern day tapirs, however they are actually Moeritherium, and were initially referred to as "trunkless start". Few years later, some starts witnessed a meteor shower, and, not long after that, they were invited to the wedding of Peaches and Julian, two mammoths that were members of the herd that stopped a deadly asteroid. In time, the starts were among those animals that existed during the days of the continental drift and made the move out of the land they once lived in, as it was being threatened by the drifting landmasses, making it to a new island home by way of an ocean bound iceberg that they boarded. Among those that went on to find new homes were some that met an angry Tyrannosaurus Rex, thought to have been extinct, that was searching for her young. The starts, along with all other creatures, left alive and sought out homes elsewhere. The starts, along with a number of other creatures, gradually made it to the warmer climates and made use of the naturally-occurring pools and water slides that were the result of the melting ice, but left the water parks once they were informed that the ice and snow were melting, which would flood the valley that the starts and all other animals lived in. They, along with other animals, engaged in a long migration from north to south in a move to escape the ice ages and head to warmer lands down south. Starts are based on the Moeritherium and were among the prey of Saber-toothed Tigers and Scimitar-toothed Cats. Almost hairless, the starts had grayish skins, though some individuals were somewhat darker in hue. The Moeritherium usually moved in herds and were not known for being able to move very fast due to their short legs and feet. The starts most notably had short trunks near their mouths that were not much use in holding onto things but still had feeling.
Small, round mammals, starts had small ears, short necks and stubby limbs ending in stout three-toed feet and short tails.
