The sloth is not lazy, the animal just has a bigger need for sleep, unlike the giraffe, which only needs 1.9 hours of sleep a day!
***The sloth is a very slow moving animal. Because it moves so slow, it has been nick named several names. Lazy animal, slow mo Joe are some of them.
A sloth
When someone is called a "sloth", it means that he/she is said to be lazy.
The term "slothful" comes from the sin of sloth in Christian teachings, which refers to laziness and an unwillingness to exert effort. It is associated with the slow-moving nature of the animal "sloth," known for its lethargy and lack of activity. So, calling a lazy person "slothful" is a metaphorical way of highlighting their lack of motivation and productivity.
Sloths have a slow metabolism due to their diet and low-energy lifestyle, not necessarily because they are lazy. Sloths conserve energy to survive in their environment, where food is scarce and they rely on camouflaging and their slow movements to avoid predators.
