Bradypodidae is a family of slow-moving mammals commonly known as sloths. They are native to the tropical forests of Central and South America. Sloths are characterized by their long limbs, curved claws, and a unique ability to hang upside down from tree branches. They primarily feed on leaves, which provide them with low energy, contributing to their slow metabolism. There are several species of sloths within the Bradypodidae family, including the three-toed sloth. These animals are well-adapted to their arboreal lifestyle, spending most of their lives in trees. Their slow movements and greenish fur help them avoid detection by predators.
