Sloths are slow-moving mammals found in Central and South America. They spend most of their time hanging upside down in trees and are known for their slow metabolism and low-energy lifestyle. Sloths have a unique digestive system that allows them to feed on a diet of leaves.
Sloths relieve themselves once a week, usually at the base of the tree they live in so it fertilizes the tree to continue their food source.
They eat tree leaves such as the Cecropia tree.
