Southern North America, Central America and northern South America serve as the native origin for these massive animals. Modern regions spanning from South Carolina down to southern Brazil formed their primary geographic range.

Elephant-like body sizes up to twenty feet long and weights over three tons defined their giant physical frames. Robust bones, long grasping limbs, and massive curved claws characterized their heavy skeletal structure.

Shifting from four limbs to an upright stance allowed them to reach high branches safely. Inward-turned hands forced them to walk slowly on the outer edges of their feet.

Tree leaves, green plants, wild grasses, and woody twigs formed the primary natural diet of these giant herbivores.
