Sloth Facts - Animal Facts Encyclopedia

Although you may have heard sloths be called two-toed and three-toed sloths however this is actually not anatomically correct. As both sloths possess three ‘toes’ on their hind limbs and the difference actually lies in their ‘fingers’. Therefore three-fingered and two-fingered is more analogically correct. There are now many scientific publications that recognise this as the correct terminology for these animals. 🦥 | The Sloth Conservation Foundation
