Giants of the Ice Age Sloth and Homashusleya Unearthed
A report notes South America’s long isolation led to unique prehistoric creatures. The giant sloth with long claws could barely move beyond a mile a month, and the fossil homashusleya, named by a South American scientist, was found in Patagonia and rebuilt by the American Museum of Natural History in New York. Affectionately called Fornmy, it stood two feet high, five feet long, with a large head and short powerful legs ending in splayed feet.
