with the glue washed on the teddy bear fur, it's quite easy if you work with a drybrush technic. The fur  is no more soft...when dry

here is my finished rhino :

I didn't look at all the pages because.... 17!  However, I really hope you have a giant sloth prey creature!

When you see them next a human, how terrifying they would have been becomes quite apparent.
Below from the Wikipedia article on terror birds:
There were some suggestions that phorusracids, like the majority of Pleistocene megafauna, were killed off by human activity such as hunting or habitat change. This idea is no longer considered valid, as improved dating on Titanis specimens show that the last phorusracids went extinct over one million years before humans arrived. However, fossil finds in South America dating to the late Pleistocene indicate that Psilopterus, a relatively small form, may have been present until 96,040 ± 6300 years ago. If true, this extends the existence of this group of avian predators considerably.

Lot of people are affraid by chickens and goose....
i can easily imagine the effet of a charge made by a terror bird on human settlement 
not a easy life during this time
