Best Answer

About 3 million years ago. Animal migration between north and south dates from this time, and is evidenced in the fossil record. Ocean currents changed when the central route between the Americas was blocked, diverting warm water across the Atlantic to produce the Gulf Stream which changed the climate of north-western Europe.
