When was the Mesohippus around?
Mesohippus lived during the Oligocene epoch, around 33 to 24 million years ago.
What epoch 34 - 23 million years ago?
During the time period 34-23 million years ago, the Earth was in the Oligocene epoch. This epoch was characterized by a cooling climate and the beginning of the formation of the Antarctic ice sheet. Mammals continued to diversify and evolve during this time.

North America, Asia and Europe was their home in the Oligocene and the earl Miocene period.
