When you enjoy the cold wind in the room coming from the air conditioner, free from dust, away from attacks from `bloodthirsty` mosquitoes or bacteria after food is cooked, have you ever
In fact, scientists recently unearthed the remains of a group of extinct megafauna in Ecuador and found that mother nature had no mercy for their fate, instead
These giant bones still shock many people to this day.
Therefore, when standing up on two legs, they would probably make many people feel scared if they still existed today.
But in reality, they were not the terror of contemporaneous animals like the tyrant dinosaur because the giant ground sloth was a vegetarian and extremely lazy.
Their head height is similar to that of a Tyrannosaurus Rex, but is not used to chew on the skulls of other animals, instead chewing on the leaves of the plants above.
Scientists have discovered 575 bones from a multigenerational group of at least 22 giant ground sloths stored in the same soil layer – meaning they died at about the same time in the same area.
The place where they died was in a hole and a lot of chewed and digested plants were found in the hole.
The cause of their death came from high temperatures and drought at that time, so these giant ground sloths were forced to gather together in puddles to avoid being attacked by mosquitoes and high temperatures.
And as their living environment gradually shrinks, it means that their movement area will become less and their feces gradually pollute the water source, causing the things they eat and drink to become contaminated.
Some people may say that this is just speculation and not very reliable, but in reality, this type of `tragedy` is not uncommon in the wild natural world.
In the 1970s, during the dry season in Tanzania, Africa, a group of hippos forced themselves to live in a small lake.
Therefore, it can be said that modern people are living an extremely lucky life.
The reason why we have lived until now is not nature’s gift to us, but that we have struggled to escape `suffering` and master our own destiny – the ruler of the Earth.
