Description
Common Name: Giant Sloth
Common Name Synonyms: Giant Ground Sloth, Giant Three-toed Sloth, Megathere, Behemoth
Scientific Name: Megatherium americanum
Size: 600cm long from snout to tail, 250cm tall in the shoulders when quadrupedal. Standing 400cm tall on two feet.
Classification: Xenarthran
Habitat: Savanna, Forests
Diet: Omnivorous, diet consist of yuccas, agave, and grasses. Rarest diet, can consisted with meat and carrion.
Description: The name "Megatherium," means, "Great Beast." As the "Great Beast," means that the Megathere is the largest of, not only sloths, but the largest of all xenarthrans. It is roughly the size of the bush loxodont, which this sloth weighs 4 tons, and measured 20 feet long. These giants are complete vegetarians, and they can use their tongues to grab leaves from trees. Also they can spend their times resting in order to aid digestion. They can use claws to tear and shred those plants to give those plants to their mouths. Also they can use them for self-defense and combat. Like giant anteaters, the Megathere have massive claws on their hands, capable of killing a predator, even it can kill a predator that is the same height as one standing on 2 legs(with one tail). Like Therizinosaurus, which it is Megatherium's dinosaur counterpart, the Megathere is too slow to hunt prey, however although they are vegetarians, they are capable of scavenging the dead, taking over the kills from predators. Unlike sloths, but like the Ceratothere(a.k.a. the white rhinoceros) which they are the biggest and the most social of rhinos, the Megathere is not only the biggest, but the most social of all sloths, which they lived mostly in groups, but they'll keep in touch with each other as friends, so they can live alone in caves. Giant sloths on Earth, that they lived in South America, during from early Pliocene to the Early Holocene, 5 million-10 thousand years ago.
