Paramylodon (SciiFii)

The Harlan's ground sloth (Paramylodon harlani) is a species of ground sloth that originally lived in what is now North America during the Pliocene through Pleistocene epochs, living from around ~4.9 Mya–11,000 years ago, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced to the modern forests, open woodlands, and grasslands of North America to help boost biodiversity. It is a rather average-sized species, growing to be about 3 meters (9.8 ft) in length and weigh about as much as 1,000–1,089 kg when fully grown. Like all species of ground sloths, the Harlan's ground sloth is a herbivore and mainly feeds on leaves, fruits, shrubs, and grasses. The Harlan's ground sloth has dermal ossicles, small bones embedded in the skin, which adds a degree of protection to the animal against any potential predator. The conservation status of the Harlan's ground sloth is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the Harlan's ground sloth's wide natural range, and their ability to tolerate habitat disturbance at a level similar to whitetail/mule deer, allowing them to survive and flourish in parts of cities and suburbs.
