b3ta has had a bit of a thing about sloths recently - 2 intersting facts from this weeks newsletter:

QUOTE
Sloth-crazed readers rushed to inform us that Sloths have hollow hair that contains green algae for camouflage. The algae changes colour at the same time as the leaves on the trees so that the sloth is always perfectly hidden.

Also, young sloths are so startlingly incompetent that they sometimes grab onto their own arms instead of a branch when hanging upside down, then let go with the other paw and fall straight out of the tree.


hmmmm...

No, the thing about falling out of trees is true, I've seen him do it in the office!
