• Bone is from Chandler Bridge formation in Ridgeville, South Carolina. One end is partially closed over, like a node of bamboo (left panel in top image). • tooth is from Drum Island in Charleston Harbor, South Carolina. Seems to match some internet images annotated as juvenile ground sloth tooth. I'm not sure if either end is the chewing surface. Possibly the surface shown in the bottom-right two images of lower image. Thanks for any thoughts.

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone had any of these fossils they’d trade? - Eremotherium, I’m mainly looking for partial teeth, but I’d be open to more complete ones also. - Megalonyx. I’m looking for colorful teeth from this species, larger teeth (2 1/2”+), or Caniniform. - Paramylodon. Would love some larger (2 1/2”+) and/or colorful teeth of this species. I would also be interested in claws or the rarer species of sloth (I.e; Glossotherium, Megatherium, etc.), but I don’t know I could give enough value to get one of those. It highly depends on what you’d want in return, but I’ve got a of shark teeth, some dinosaur bones, some invertebrates, and will most likely have some nice fish soon.

Many paleoburrows have been found in South America and are believed to have been excavated by ground sloths. That being the case has anybody heard of any of these paleoburrows in North America? I understand that a good number of ground sloth remain have been discovered in caves in North America. Is it possible that some of these caves are misidentified burrows? From what I can gather the majority of the paleoburrows in South America are found in hillsides close to water. Has anybody seen a site in North America that contained ground sloth remains and could be interpreted as one of these burrows?
