Prehistoric glyptodonts graze on grassy plains. An Eremotherium is in the background

Prehistoric glyptodonts of the genus Doedicurus graze on grassy plains 25, 000 years ago in what is today South America. In the background is a giant ground sloth of the genus Eremotherium.
With a turtle-like shell five feet tall and weighing over two tons, Doedicurus was the largest known glyptodontid, an extinct family of heavily-armored herbivores related to modern armadillos. Doedicurus carried a large spiked tail that could have helped protect it from large predators and other Doedicurus.
Eremotherium was a Megatheriid that grew to 20 feet long and weighed up to three tons

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back 25,000 years ago to the grassy plains of South America, where prehistoric glyptodonts peacefully graze. The magnificent creatures in focus belong to the genus Doedicurus, a family of heavily-armored herbivores closely related to modern armadillos. Standing at an impressive five feet tall and weighing over two tons, Doedicurus was the largest known glyptodontid. Its turtle-like shell provided formidable protection against predators and other members of its species. In the background looms a giant ground sloth from the genus Eremotherium. This Megatheriid was an awe-inspiring sight, measuring up to 20 feet long and weighing three tons. Together with their gentle counterparts, these majestic animals paint a vivid picture of life during the Pleistocene era. The digitally generated image showcases not only these fascinating creatures but also highlights their lush woodland habitat. Towering trees provide shade while vibrant vegetation carpets the ground beneath them. It is within this diverse ecosystem that these ancient beings thrived. As we admire this artwork capturing a moment frozen in time, we are reminded of Earth's rich biodiversity and how it has evolved throughout history. This image serves as a testament to our planet's ever-changing landscape and offers us glimpses into worlds long gone by.
