This project investigates the dietary habits of fossil sloths in South America, focusing on potential carnivory through advanced isotope analysis. By examining these ancient mammals, the research aims to reshape our understanding of their ecological roles and the broader mammalian community structure prior to the last…
South America (SA) contains Earth’s highest mammalian species richness, but this richness was exponentially higher just 10k years ago, prior to the last ice age extinction that eliminated more than 80% of mammals in the continent.
