Trivia: Despite the Dodo’s less than brilliant survival instincts, they outlived all of the major character’s species. Dodos were wiped out around the mid to late 17th century, whilst woolly mammoths (Manny) died out 10,000 years ago (a dwarf race existed until 1700 BC), ground sloths (Sid) are widely accepted to have become extinct some 2500 BC (although it has been proposed a small group survived till 1550 AD), and saber tooth tigers (Diego) were wiped out around 10,000 BC. Only humans like Roshan and his father survived the Dodo.
Goofs: Continuity: When Soto describes his plan for bringing down the mammoth, Zeke and Oscar swap positions between shots.
