The sloth is a rather slow-moving tree dweller from Central and South America. This chill guy can mostly be seen hanging upside down from branches, although it is a relatively good swimmer as well. Sloths can be divided into two-toed and three-toed sloths, although all of them actually have three toes. Can you believe it?
At first glance, Costa Rica is a sloth lover's paradise. However, of eight species, there are only two in Costa Rica; the brown-throated sloth and Hoffman's two-toed sloth.
