Any models of a Megatherium out there?

I was wondering if anyone knows of a good model of a Megatherium, which was a giant (elephant sized) ground sloth of the ice ages. The only one I have seen is one on Turbosquid, which seems pricey and not necessarily suited for Daz Studio. Any other models out there? Thanks!

Dinoraul has one in his store at Rendo http://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/megatheriumdr/93187
Interesting. It looks a little more bear like than some of the reconstructions I have seen (there is still a lot of debate about how head and face would have looked), his Eremotherium is also very interesting. Decisions, decisions.
Well, after 12 years the Megatherium it's finally here: https://www.daz3d.com/megatherium-by-am

That is a fine looking model! Into the cart!
I never knew megatheriums were sloths. I had always thought they were mammoth-sized bears--and I was planning on using him for a sci-fi giant mutant grizzly.
Oh, well. It wouldn't be the first time something stood in for the wrong type of critter--Jurassic Park, I'm looking at YOU lot for using Dakotaraptors in place of Velociraptors...years before Dakotas were even discovered.
A generation ago I was hunting for one. I wound up faking it using Capsces' Cat of Nine Lives, with press-on claws and tongue modeled in Stratavision3D, animated in Bryce 4. The show aired statewide. Thanks again, @Capsces Digital Ink.
Your new one looks fabulous.
Hallelujah!

I thought they were deinonychus.
