The pygmy three toed sloth is a sloth species only found in panama. It’s habitat is exclusive to an island, named escudo de veragua. The climate in panama is warm and tropical, with lots of rain during the cold seasons. these small animals live in mangrove forests, which directly impacts their diet. They eat the leaves of the mangrove trees and it finds good by slowly getting around all day finding and eating leaves. Since sloths are so slow, it’s pretty difficult to run away or defend itself from predators, so they rely on camouflage and staying up in the trees. the predators can include wild cats, but if they’re in the water, they also have the ability to swim well.The reason three toed pygmy sloths are incredibly important, it’s because they’re extremely endangered, it’s estimated there’s only around 30 left.  Some things leading to their endangerment is loss of habitat, because the trees are cut down.  These sloths are so slow, that some of them onto travel 49 yards a day. They spend most of their day in their tree, meaning they’re arboreal. The reason they’re so slow is because their metabolism is very slow, so they can’t use too much energy at once and they need to conserve it. Pygmy sloths are only 20 inches and weigh as much as a few books.for wild suzhou i’m palm tree and thank you for listening.
