They are a kind of pangolin anteater, but unlike their real-life relatives, they have no scales or claws.
Other relatives, such as the giant anteater, have also been proposed.
Unlike in anteaters and pangolins, the occiput (the back of the skull) is flat and vertical.
The giant anteater is the largest of its family, 182217cm ft in length, with weights of 3341kg lb for males and 2739kg lb for females.
The giant anteater's coat is mostly grey and salted with white.
Doing this allows the anteater to keep its claws out of the way while walking.
To drink, an anteater may dig for water when no surface water is available, creating waterholes for other animals.
They believe women who touched anteater masks or men who stumbled while wearing them would die or receive some sort of physical disorder.
