Facts About Sloths.. lulz
Sloths have very little muscle mass but are able to grasp onto trees firmly with their claws. Dead sloths have even been known to remain clinging to a tree limb. The creatures spend as much as 20 hours a day sleeping while hanging from a tree limb or curled up near a branch.
Sloths have a four-part stomach that slowly digests the tough leaves they eat. It can sometimes take up to a month for a sloth to digest a meal. Sloths have adapted to living in trees so well they even mate while hanging from branches.
Sloths mainly leave their tree to urinate or defecate about once a week. Leaving the tree makes them vulnerable to predators like the eagle or jaguar. A sloth only has its claws for defense against predators. However, its very low level of movement and the camouflage make it difficult to notice. Sloths are excellent swimmers. They sometimes will drop from a tree limb into water and use their long arms to swim with broad strokes.
