4.7K views · 2.3K reactions | We find we are very often asked about the differnce between calling sloths - two-toed and three-toed VS Two-fingered and Three-fingered. Referring to their fingers makes much more sense anatomically. We believe that the use of ‘toes’ came from the translation from Spanish to English. • • • • #Wildlife #Sloths #SlothFacts #SlothLife #AnimalFacts #SlothLover | The Sloth Conservation Foundation | Facebook

It’s time for a dip! The pygmy three-toed sloth is the slowest moving land mammal in the world. They move around two metres per minute! However, when swimming, they’re capable of moving around three times faster. Their diet of leaves generates large amounts of gas in the sloth’s stomach, helping to keep them buoyant. | BBC Earth

Oh to be a sloth enjoying a carrot... 🦥🥕 All species of #sloth are folivores, or an animal that specializes in eating leaves, but two-toed sloths have a more varied diet that includes fruits and small amounts of animal protein. Here at the Aquarium, our Linnaeus's Two-Toed Sloth, Takoda, mainly eats veggies and occasionally eggs as part of his main diet. #aquarium #utah #sloths #eating #carrots #animals | The Living Planet Aquarium
