Given that the series has featured the breaking up of Pangaea as a very recent event, the discussion is probably rendered moot. as it shows the formation of the Grand Canyon. There are also animals such as Macrauchenia, which in real life only lived in South America, and the presence of what appears to be Stonehenge is notable, although the short film Surviving Sid explicitly takes place in the U.S.A. However, the series has also shown the formation of the North American continent as a result of Scrat's accidental sinking of Scratlantis, draining the ocean in that area, which means that the events of the previous films must have taken place somewhere else. The presence of glyptodonts and ground sloths should definitely set it in North America, where no aardvarks have ever lived as far as we know. It is worthy to note that there is no clear indication of where the Ice Age movies take place, other than that it's the northern hemisphere, as the animals migrate southwards to escape the cold.It's also feasible to speculate that these Aardvarks could have been hairier than modern African ones, although their mouths probably looked similar to how a modern aardvark's mouth looks. In real life, there exist fossils of extinct Eurasian aardvarks from the Pliocene, and it's conceivable to imagine that they could have survived into the Pleistocene (although this is just speculation).They appear to live in small family units. Get the latest news, reviews, videos and screenshots. They also have only three toes on their feet, while modern aardvarks have four. Ice Age 2: The Meltdown is a 3D Platformer game developed by Vivendi for the Wii video game console. Alternatively, some individuals are blue in coloration, but these have only been observed in the subterranean realm of Geotopia (and given that other Geotopian animals are likewise more colorful than their surface counterparts seems to be a side effect of the crystals).
Unlike modern aardvarks, the mouth in this species is located at the base of the snout, not at the tip of it, and their bodies are covered in long shaggy fur which is brown in most individuals, and mixed with cream-colored patterns in others. It is certain that Cholly managed to escape the flooding waters with the other animals.Ī large chalicothere, Cholly sported sharp claws and long, grasping arms, along with a thick body, elongated, thick neck, horselike head and short legs, coated all in light tan and dark brown fur.Ĭholly suffered from flatulence and apologized for it to other animals that came close to him.This is a fictional species of hairy, long-snouted Aardvarks which lived during the pleistocenic ice ages. His flatulence was mistaken by a mammoth named Manny for a mammoth call, and as the mammoth and his friends ran closer, they saw that it was only Cholly, who was sitting on a log and mistakenly let his gases flow directly from his buttocks into the ground sloth Sid's face.įurther on, Cholly aided Scrat in getting from place to place by means of his flatus, though Scrat had to earn the favor by giving Cholly apples to eat. Eating apples, Cholly eventually suffered from chronic and extremely unpleasant flatulence from his posterior, blaming it on his stomach, which he remarked that it hated him.
The Cholly was voiced by actor Alan Tudyk in Ice Age: The Meltdown and Enrique Iglesias voiced the second Cholly in Ice Age: The Great Egg-Scapade. Cholly was so tied to the foods he ate that he needed to continuously eat or he would become so slow that he could hardly move at all.
