I've been a bit Slothful today, and not moved very far. This Southern Two-toed Sloth certainly wasn't in a hurry. I didn't know before that Two-toed Sloths have two toes on their front feet and three on their back feet. This is also known as Linnaeus's Sloth. It's main enemies are humans and yesterday's guest, Harpy Eagles as well as cats such as the Ocelot. Man's affect on it's population is largely due to deforestation and it is becoming a rare species in the wild.

Sounds like an awesome trip Tony, 550 species mind blowing, I'm struggling to get my head round the 250 in 8 days in Africa!!
