ground sloth

The footprints were found alongside those of mammoths, giant ground sloths and other megafauna that flocked to water in the largely arid landscape.

Perhaps it’s evidence of a range extension for a known ground sloth species for which we have no DNA.

A roughly 14,000-year-old midden made by vizcachas in southwestern Argentina yielded a turd from an extinct species of ground sloth.

Presently a large ground sloth came to the pool to drink, lapping up the water at the sides that had partly cooled.

The largest of the edentates was the Megatherium, a clumsy ground sloth bigger than a rhinoceros.

It was called the giant ground sloth, and, as you may judge from this name, was not very quick in its movements.
