1. They are incredibly adorable

Does this need explanation? They seem to be smiling all the time and have the fiercest winged eyeliner.

2. They are the only naturally green mammal.

Technically they aren’t green, but they naturally form symbiotic relationships with multiple types of algae that grow in their fur. Though it’s not easy being green, it does disguise them from predators.

3. They’re also very cute when wet.

They can actually swim very well even though they seem to move so awkwardly on land.

4. They're just really good at sleeping.

Sloths sleep less than commonly thought, usually ten hours a day. But still, I relate to any being that appreciates a good nap.

5.They only poop once a week.

They have more important things to do so they really keep their priorities straight. They climb to the base of the same tree every time to do so to fertilize the tree from which they eat.

6. They always have a fierce manicure.

Their claws are strong enough to hold them upside down a majority of their lives. Even after death, they may remain hanging in their trees due to the strength of their claws.

7. They know how to positively diet.

Sloths live a majority of their life being vegan, but they don’t ever brag about it or put down others who choose to eat products from animals.

8. They’re incredibly friendly.

Even wild three-toed sloths will let humans hold them (unlike their more aggressive two-toed counterpart).

9. They come in many varieties.

There are currently 4 living subspecies of three-toed sloths.The brown-throated sloth and the pale-throated sloth are both at low risk of endangerment. Unfortunately, the maned sloth (pictured above) is considered vulnerable of endangerment and the pygmy sloth is considered critically endangered. (If this upsets you as it should you can support organizations such as this: http://www.appcpanama.org.)

10. Two words: baby sloths.

Baby three toed sloths are the epitome of cuteness because they’re the same thing but tinier, and they don’t cry like baby humans.

Three toed sloths are basically the best thing to ever happen to this planet.
