Hi my name is Taylor. Today I am going talk to you about sloths. I am going to tell you about they are, what they look like, what they eat and where they live. I will also tell you some facts about them.
First I’m going to tell you about what sloths are. Sloths are a mammal. They have long legs and chocolate colourd fur on their backs and on the front there is white.
What do sloths look like? Sloths look very funny but they are very very talanted mammals. They have a lot of fur on their body. Sloths have small heads and big eyes. Sloths have a big black nose, they all have diffrent coloured eyes but you can not see the colour. Sloths can weigh up to 40 pounds and they can grow to 50-60 centimetres long.
What do sloths eat? Sloths eat dry food like leaves, bud bugs, twigs, dried fruit and insects. They eat a lot and a lot of food. Sloths hunt for their own food, they do not wait for food to come to them.
Where do sloths live? Sloths are related to ant eaters and pydmuesis, only found on one small island on the coast of Panama in South America. They would be surrounded by the island. Sloths also live in jungles and rainforests. They like trees with branches on it and they love sleeping on trees. Sloths also roamed North America and became extinct around 10,000 years ago.
Now I’m going to share some interesting facts about sloths with you. Did you know that sloths only poop once a week? Sloths are also great swimmers. They can live up to 40 years old. Sloths also spent most of their day sleeping and eating. Sloths have a green algae growing on them that helps them camouflage in the trees.
Now that I’ve told you all about sloths, I hope you learned something new. Thank you for listening.
