The moth will live in the fur of the sloth until it is time to lay it's eggs. Once a week the sloth goes to the bottom of the tree to lay it's waste. The moth then flies onto the waste and lays it's eggs. After all that the moth hitches a ride on the moth to live the rest of its life.

What is the relationship between a yucca flower and a yucca moth?

The Yucca plant gives the moth a place to lay her eggs, while the moth helps the plant reproduce. The moth brings pollen from other Yucca plants to the female portion of the plant. It then deposits the pollen into the plant. The moth also lays its eggs in the plant. Once the eggs hatch the lavae feed on the Yucca plants seeds that were formed by the pollen that the moth brought. Since both animals are benefiting from this relationship, it is called a Mutualistic association.
