What is a "sloth"?

The sloth is a slow-moving mammal native to Central and South America, known for its unique appearance and leisurely lifestyle. Sloths have a distinctive body shape with long limbs and curved claws that allow them to hang upside down from trees for extended periods of time. They have a specialized diet of leaves and are known for their slow metabolism and low energy levels. Sloths are well adapted to their arboreal habitat and are often associated with a relaxed and laid-back demeanor.
