No, but they do move so slow that algae grows on them, that is why they can have a greenish tint.
The pace of their movement has nothing to do with algae growth.
I think it is because sloths are VERY slow and since there so slow algae grows on them.
Sloths will grow algae on their fur, it is a beneficial relationship for both parties since the sloth will get the algae closer to the sun so it can grow and gather nutrients, and the algae provides the sloth with beneficial nutrients which itabsorbsthrough its skin.
Because sloths are so slow!
because of the water that is i trees and stuff when it rains it gets in the sloths fur and starts to grow mold
Sloths have adapted to their habitat by having long claws to get a good grip around trees and they move very slow, so slowly that their predators cannot see them in the trees and also they grow algae on them to blend in with the trees !! Hope I have helped you all my love dionne xx

Sloths .
algae grows on them so that they can camoflouge in the tree to stay aways from predators
Green algae live in the hollow hair of sloths, making it green.
Partly from natural colouration, partly from algae growing in their fur.
Because sloths are so slow!
Because they have an algae growing in their fur.
because of the water that is i trees and stuff when it rains it gets in the sloths fur and starts to grow mold
sloths adapted to the tropical rain forest because green algae grows on their fur which camouflages them.
They have adapted to there habitat by,having long claws to grip the trees,they move slowly so that there predators cant see them,And finally they grow algae on them to blend in with the trees.
The sloth does not grow moss, the moss does.
