My favorite animal

My favorite animal is the sloth🦥💓


The sloth is the slowest mammal in the world. They are endemic to the neotropical region, from the Yucatan peninsula in Central America to Brazil.
They have a round head, with a flattened nose and ears so small that they cannot be seen. There are two types of sloths, those with 2 fingers and those with 3 fingers, the latter have a small tail. The sloth can measure between 40 and 70 centimeters.

They have powerful claws, which can measure between 8 and 10 centimeters, and serve as tools for grip and defense.
Algae grow on its coat, which together with its slowness, helps it to go unnoticed in front of its predators.
They have a diet based on stems, young shoots, soft leaves, which do not digest well, due to this they have very large and specialized slow-acting stomachs, it takes up to 50 days to decompose a leaf.

The sloth sleeps most of the time, they only spend 5 hours a day eating and moving. They are agreeable and affable, they avoid confrontation for survival. Males are more solitary, while females generally move in groups.

I like sloths because I consider them beautiful and they have a very loving appearance. But what I like most about them is that they are very interesting animals with very peculiar characteristics, such as that they only defecate once a week or that, despite how slow they are, they are excellent and very fast swimmers. Due to everything mentioned above, it makes them one of my favorite animals.

And of course my favorite sloth in the world is Sid💖
