Sloths have become all the rage in recent years. Sloth memes, clothes, and endless videos are never hard to find. While I by no means am complaining, I wondered why sloths are so popular. I decided to painstakingly look into why they are so awesome and meme worthy.

1. They are really cute.

Two-toed or three-toed, they're so cute, they warrant a collective "awwww." Also, this one is cuddling a stuffed animal.

2. Sloths love their moms.

Sloths, like most college students, realize their moms rule. After a sloth is born it hangs on it mama's belly for several weeks. Once they move off moms belly they are by her side till 4-years-old.

3. They value sleep.

Sloths are nap goals. They sleep 10-15 hours a day. Who wouldn't want some extra sleep?

4. Sloths are incredibly clumsy on land.

They may trip and fall as much as I do, but they make it up in the water.

5. They are great swimmers.

6. They have mastered taking quality photos upside down.

Sloths spend most of there days hanging in trees upside down.

7. Sloths are boss couch potatoes.

Sloths, the slowest mammal, move so slowly that they grow algae in their fur. Lucky for the sloths that algae helps them better camouflage themselves.

8. Sloths are hung up to dry.

At a sloth sanctuary in Costa Rica, they give the sloths baths on Wednesdays. Once they are done, they are hung up to drip dry before being towel dried. But seriously, a bucket o'sloths!

9. Sloths really only leave their tree home to poop.

Sloths move from the safety of their tree to the forest floor to go to the bathroom once a week. They use the bathroom in same spot each week.

10. This sloth's adorable pajamas.

This little sloth is an orphan, but thankfully has a wonderful sanctuary to call home. Being without a mama has made this little guy more susceptible to infections, like mange. Mange is what this sloth has but this gnarly PJs paired with a new haircut will heal this little sloth right up.

11. This sloth and cat dynamic duo.

There is really not much else to say... just look at em cuddle.

12. They know how to party.

There ain't no party like a sloth party!
