Bruno Gonzalez is a 8 years old boy who is a fan of dinosaurs. While walking with his family on the beach in the municipality of Miramar, South from Mar del Plata, he bumped into the fossile of a rare animal from dated to the Ice Age. Footage recorded on Friday showed the little paleontology enthusiast reviewing the finding with the Miramar Natural Sciences Museum experts, as the institution took over the remains. The extraordinary paleontological discovery corresponds to a giant sloth, called 'Scelidotherium', which lived on the region during the Pleistocene, about 100,000 years ago. The piece discovered by chance belongs to a three meters high animal, estimated to have weighted about a ton. "I was going with my dad and my mom walking through the sand and I was climbing the ravines and my dad was drinking mate, I saw a spine and I told my dad and we contacted the museum", recalled the boy. Paleontologists of the Miramar Natural Sciences Museum explain the implications of this finding. "Sloths are native only and exclusively to South America, after the extinction of the dinosaurs, South America became a large island as Oceania is today, which is why it developed a unique fauna that is not repeated on other continents", said Mariano Magnussen, a technician at the museum.
