Two types of sloths-two-toed and three-toed-live in Central and South America. They are the slowest mammals on earth, and this sometimes prevents female sloths from meeting their reproductive capacity of one offspring per year. Additionally, mothers care for only one offspring at a time, and do not mate again until it is independent. In two-toed sloths, for example, there is an interval of at least 15 months between births.

Does the male kangaroo carry the baby in its pouch?

They sure do! The kangaroo babies are born in the normal way, then holding tightly to their mommy's hair, they crawl up the mommy's tummy until they find the pocket. The pocket is called a'Pouch'. When the babies get into the pouch, they quickly find the mommy's milk and then they drink milk whenever they are hungry. The babies grow and grow so that after awhile, the babies get to be so big that the mommy makes them get out of the pouch and live outside.

Is a human baby born in a egg?

No. All fetuses start off as a cell which is called an egg. But human babies are not inside an egg like baby chickens are when chicks are born. Human babies do not need a shell, because the mommy's belly gives the fetus protection for the entire time. Chicks must grow inside the egg shell but outside of their mommy's belly.
