When did the megatherium get extincted?

The megatherium, also known as the giant ground sloth, is believed to have gone extinct around 10,000 years ago, during the late Pleistocene epoch. Its extinction is thought to be linked to a combination of climate change and human activities, such as hunting. Fossil evidence suggests that megatherium roamed parts of South America, and its disappearance marked the end of many large megafauna species during that period.
