** ''Doedicurus'' is shown living alongside ''Thylacosmilus'' 3 million years ago (the Pliocene). While similar (and smaller) glyptodonts did coexist with the pouched sabretooth during the Late Miocene-Pliocene, ''Doedicurus'' itself only showed up during the Early Pleistocene, after ''Thylacosmilus'' died out.

* InformedSpecies: ''Smilodon'' and ''Hyaenodon''. Aside from its trademark saber teeth, the former looks like a generic panther-like feline who sports nonretractable claws and a long, rat-like tail, while the latter looks like some overgrown possum with a ''Hyaenodon'''s head mounted on it, instead of the more athletic, canine-like creature it should be.

* MisplacedWildlife: ''Edmontonia'', named after Edmonton, Canada, appears in Bolivia, in South America. This is actually based on footprints attributed to ankylosaurs from the [[https://www.scielo.br/j/aabc/a/KvCbsydrjqbZJg89FgqfqZR/?lang=en Bolivian tracksite shown in the documentary]], but it's still baffling why they opted to specifically call the ankylosaur ''Edmontonia''. Using the name of the ichnogenus (''Ligabueichnium'') would have been iffy but better than just plucking a North American taxon and putting it in South America long before there was a landbridge connecting the two continents.

** We do have footprints attributed to ankylosaurs at the Cal Orcko track site in Bolivia ('''Ligabueichnium''), though the documentary undermines that by deciding the call the track-maker ''Edmontonia'' (a North American ankylosaur).
