Uncategorized Zoology

Glyptodon was a large, armored mammal of the family Glyptodontidae, related to armadillos, that lived during the Pleistocene Epoch. Flatter than a Volkswagen Beetle, but about the same general size and weight, Glyptodon is believed to have been an herbivore, grazing on grasses and other plants found near rivers and small bodies of water.
