  1. family megatheriidae

    Family Megatheriidae, also known as ground sloths, is an extinct group of large to very large ground-dwelling sloths that originated in South America during the Early Miocene period and later migrated to North America. They are characterized by their hefty sizes, which range from roughly the size of a large dog to the size of an elephant. Members of this family, such as the genera Megatherium and Eremotherium, were known to walk on the knuckles of their forelimbs, similar to modern gorillas, and were also capable of bipedal locomotion. They are thought to have become extinct around 11,000 years ago.
