Sloths are primarily hunted for their meat, which is considered a delicacy in some cultures. Additionally, their fur is sometimes sought after for use in traditional crafts and clothing. Habitat destruction and poaching for the illegal pet trade also pose significant threats to sloth populations. Conservation efforts are critical to protect these unique animals and their ecosystems.
