While he is always called “Sid“, Sid”s full name is Sidney, as revealed by his would-be paramour Sylvia. Ground sloths are a diverse group of extinct sloths, in the mammalian superorder Xenarthra. They may have died out as recently as 1550 AD in Hispaniola and Cuba, but had long since been extinct on the mainland of North and South America. The term “ground sloth“ is used as a reference for all extinct sloths because of the large size of the earliest forms discovered, as opposed to the extant “tree sloths.“ However, this is an historical convention and does not imply that all extinct sloths were strictly terrestrial in nature.
