The Pleistocene is a geologic time period called an epoch. The Pleistocene began about 1.8 million years ago and ended only 10 thousand years ago.
This is the Cenozoic era, near the boundary of Quaternary and Neogene periods, and therefore near the boundary of the Pleistocene and Pliocene epochs. Please see the link.
Every epoch apart from the Pleistocene and Holocene.
Australia was one continent not covered by ice during the Pleistocene Ice Age. Africa is another continent not covered during this time.
The woolly mammoth, ground sloths, and megafauna such as mastodons and giant beavers were some of the herbivores that lived during the Pleistocene epoch.
No, the Pleistocene epoch is not the only glacial period for which evidence exists. Earth has experienced multiple glacial periods throughout its history, with the Pleistocene being the most recent and best-documented glacial period. Other major glacial periods include the Huronian glaciation and the Snowball Earth episodes.

Loess is the term used to describe fertile soil deposits made by wind at the end of the Pleistocene Ice Age. This fine-grained material is typically found in areas that were covered by glaciers during the Ice Age.

Modern humans are about 150,000 to 200,000 years old. This would place their rise firmly in the Pleistocene.
The Pleistocene theory argues that hunter-gatherers caused the extinction of many species after the end of the last ice age.
Yes. Birds are classified as dinosaurs and they were certainly around in the Pleistocene. Even aside from that, it is still possible as a dinosaur fossil could be weathered out of Mesozoic rock and then re-buried in Pleistocene sediment.
