Glyptodont

Much larger than the present-day giant armadillo, but extinct today. A diorama at the Bishop Museum of Science & Nature recreates a Floridian scene feat features animals that have since become extinct. Glyptodonts existed during the Miocene era of between 23 million and 5 million years ago. They became extinct around the end of the last Ice Age, coinciding with the arrival of the first human beings.
