Biography[]
Ice Age[]
Carl and Frank are seen about to dig into a leaf salad topped with one of their favorite foods, a dandelion. However, Sid the sloth approaches the pair, uses the salad to wipe off some Doedicurus droppings he'd accidentally stepped in earlier, and eats the dandelion, all while rambling on about how rhinos have small brains. Carl and Frank are angered by Sid's insults and his ruining their salad, and Sid realizes his mistake too late. He tries to deescalate the situation by feeding Carl a pinecone, but this only further antagonizes them (brontotheres' teeth were more suited to soft leaves than to hard, woody cones). Realizing he can't calm them down, Sid turns and runs away, with Carl and Frank close behind.
However, Sid encounters Manny the mammoth, who sides against Carl and Frank because he doesn't like animals that kill for revenge or pleasure. Manny tries to bluff and intimidate the brontotheres into backing off, but they see through his bluff and continue charging towards him and Sid. Manny uses his superior strength to lift and throw Carl and Frank off the cliff to stop them from reaching Sid. Defeated, Carl and Frank decide to wait until later to retaliate against Sid.
Their opportunity for vengeance comes up later, when Sid mistakenly wanders into their mud pool. Still harboring a grudge against the sloth, Carl and Frank give chase and pursue Sid once more. However, Sid once again gets a lucky break and escapes their wrath when he runs into Diego the saber-toothed tiger and convinces him to hold Sid in his mouth as if he were going to eat him. Carl and Frank see Diego holding Sid in his mouth and assume he's been killed. Dismayed that their chance to kill Sid is gone, the brontotheres sadly walk away, remarking that "carnivores have all the fun." Sid remarks that he doesn't like having to deceive the "rhinos", but the situation called for it.
