Terror birds and jaguar both actually preyed on them so there's an obvious starting point. Also please stop. |

what if said glyptodont was the size of a bison? also, I suck at this stuff since my knowledge pool when it comes to difficult prehistory questions is poor, so cut me some slack. |

Terror birds would still probably be able to hunt them and so might a large Jaguar (especially a large one of the Pleistocene NA or SA subspecies), tapirs aren't exactly tiny and Jaguars are able to kill them. A large croc or alligator would also be able to. |

Thylacosmilids too likely took at least young individuals. |

Thylacosmilids basically had the most overpowered saberteeth of all time; like in most sparassodonts, they grew throughout their lifetime or at least for a good chunk of it, and had a "tusk-like" structure to boot. If anything could kill at least occasionally a glyptodont, it would be a thylacosmilid. |

Yes, we've heard your reasoning multiple times, but this still isn't the place to ask completely speculative questions regarding a fanfiction. |

Assuming they encountered (which I don't know if it happened), I think large bears could have taken on Glyptodonts too. |

What'd be some good ways to teach kids how to tell actual fossils and casts/replicas apart from each other? |
