Extinction
Great job @Augustios Paleo and @PrimalMustelid on achieving GA status with this article!

I was curious about the extinction date of 7,000 cal. BP- I tried to find a source, but only found this one in the Wiki article, which doesn't appear to give an end date for Glyptotherium (correct me if I'm wrong).

[http://sedici.unlp.edu.ar/handle/10915/101557 Ancient DNA from the extinct South American giant glyptodont Doedicurus sp. (Xenarthra: Glyptodontidae) reveals that glyptodonts evolved from Eocene armadillos]

Might I suggest an extinction section discussing end dates for Glyptotherium? The end dating of South American megafauna is often a strongly debated topic. SuperTah (talk) 07:51, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Chasing down good dates for the BIR. "Glyptodon in Colombia" article references a ~60kya date, but the "Damaged skulls" article argues that dispersal only occurred circa 15-20kya (although also only states fossils are not found in South America before the Late Pleistocene).
