Yes. The pelage(fur of entire body) of sloth's hosts a symbiotic relationship with cyanobacteria exhibiting a green tinge that helps it blend in with the environment. The "green" in the pelage is sometimes referred to as algae, however, debatable due to algae classified as a eukaryote("multi"-cell) and cyanobacteria as a prokaryote(single-cell) organism.

Green algae grows in a sloth's fur because the sloth's slow movement and low body temperature provide an ideal environment for algae to thrive. The algae benefits from the moisture and warmth in the sloth's fur, while the sloth gains camouflage from the green coloration. This relationship is a form of symbiosis where both the sloth and the algae benefit.
