This Sloth needed help! | Reader's Digest

Jeffrey is two-months old today! We love this baby sloth slow much and we hope you do too. ❤️ Our little one continues to stick close to mom Fiona, but already loves to explore new foods and practice hanging upside down on his own. 📷: Keeper Jen H. | Roger Williams Park Zoo & Carousel Village

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
