Megaflora is a general term for motile vegetables larger than a little pony. They were an important component in the diets of prehistoric lithic-era ponies, who hunted them extensively and eventually mostly to extinction.
All described megaflora are known from fossil remains or from waste scraps in excavated prehistoric middens. A few depictions illustrating megaflora in life are also known from cave paintings and fragments of ancient pottery and sculpture.
Some common varieties of megaflora preyed upon by ancient ponies include:
- Wooly radishes
- Colossal cucumbers
- The 'killer' tomato (a tomato-like fruit sporting a pseudo-mouth and pseudo-tongue full of sharp tooth-like thorns used to defend itself)
- Running squash
