    ○ They are often mistaken for bears due to their appearance, but they belong to a different mammalian order.
    ○ Sloths can sleep for up to 15–20 hours a day in the wild, typically while hanging from trees.
    ○ They primarily feed on leaves of the trees they inhabit, moving slowly to conserve energy, meaning they rarely need to descend to the ground.
