Sloths are the slowest
invertebrates in the world and sit so often that algae grow on their fur. The
plant gives a greenish tint, which is useful camouflage in the trees of houses
in tropical forests in Central and South America. Sloths identified by the
number of long, protruding claws on each forefoot. There are both sloths and
sloths.
TREE LIFE:
All sloths are built
for living on treetops. They consume most of the time in the air and hang on
branches with sturdy handles that are supported by long claws. (Dead sloths are
known to hold handles and stick to offices.) Sloths even sleep on trees, often
15 to 20 hours a day. They often remain immobile even when they are awake. At
night, they eat leaves, shoots, and fruits and draw almost all of their water
from succulent plants. Give birth to sloths by mating while hanging on a tree.
Three-toed sloths often cling to their mothers. In other words, I will hug and
move for nine months after birth.
LIFE
ON LAND:
On land, the sloth's
weak hind legs provide no strength, and long claws are annoying. They dig out
the earth with their front claws and pull them with their strong front legs and
pull their bellies to the ground. If these animals are caught on land, they
will not be able to avoid predators like big cats and will have to clump or
chew to protect themselves.
Sloths are amazing
swimmers, although they can't be uncomfortable on land. Sometimes they fall
directly from the rain-forest trees into the river and stroke them efficiently
with long arms.
PROPERTIES:
The three-toed sloth
emits a long, high cry that echoes in the forest as "ah." Because of
this crying, these sloths are sometimes called Ais (pronounced
"eyes"). The three-toed sloth also has the advantage that other
mammals have little to do with it. It has a spine on the neck that allows the
head to turn 270 degrees. Sloths have a meager metabolic rate, so they move
slowly and slowly between trees. On average, sloths travel 41 meters per day.
This is less than half the length of a soccer field!
Female sloths give
birth to a baby every year after six months of pregnancy. The baby grabs the
mother's belly and moves through the trees with the mother for about six
months. This relevant bond period helps offspring to learn and grow. If the
sloth leaves its mother after about six months, it takes part of its mother's
range and continues to communicate with its parents via phone calls.
Sloths doze about 15
hours a day. There are only 9 hours left to get through the tree. They maintain
a low body temperature of approximately 86 ° F to 93 ° F and move in and out of
the shadow to regulate the body temperature. Surprisingly, the sloth is a
strong swimmer. From time to time, they fall into the water from a pole on a
tree, drive them through the water with their arms outstretched.
Sloths spend most of
their time in the canopy and are only released once a week. Trees naturally
protect against predators such as jaguars and eagles. It is safer for the sloth
to pretend to be the floor without moving. In rare cases, however, they will go
on adventures to find more food and companions.
