SLOTH OLYMPICS: TEDDY WRESTLING
Over at the SLOTH OLYMPICS we’re channeling that Friday feeling with the final event of the day - TEDDY WRESTLING - AKA the snuggle and snooze in which slothletes must cuddle for an entire round and not be woken by the bell.
Pygmy three-toed sloth (Bradypus pygmaeus)
This species, discovered on the island on Escudo de Veraguas off the Carribean coast, shows how quickly the process of evolution can happen.
The sloths are slower and more placid than their mainland relatives and, remarkably, they can swim.The pygmy sloth has been isolated on its tiny island habitat for just 9,000 years - when rising sea levels cut the island off from the mainland.
They seem suitably adapted to their Caribbean island lifestyle.
Pygmy sloths are less than half the size of a normal sloth and they only eat mangrove leaves - a low-nutirent diet that explains their diminutive stature.
There are just 200 of them on the island so every mangrove tree counts for these vulnerable creatures.
