Description: In the ice age 1, Sid is first shown fast asleep while all other animals migrate in droves to a warmer climate. Sid was left behind by his own family,(which is shown for his family thinks of him as an annoyance, when they'd left him behind to migrate, and so decided to travel alone without them in annoyance at being left behind. As he leaves the tree where he slept, however, he steps in Glyptodon dung and is waylaid. Not far off, two brontotheres are about to enjoy one last meal before leaving to head south, but Sid, not knowing this, wipes his filthy feet on their salad and in the process, annoys them more by unknowingly splattering bits of dung into their face, but to top it all off, he eats the crucial part of their salad: a dandelion. This last act angers them to the point of wanting to kill him. As they are about to, Sid runs directly into Manfred the mammoth who saves him only because Manfred himself does not wish to see anyone killing out of pleasure. As Sid is saved, he follows Manfred in spite of the fact that Manfred wants him gone.
