Three-toed Sloth, in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica.

            Costa Rica's dense forests are home to two of the world's six sloth species: the familiar brown-throated three-toed sloth and the more elusive Hoffman's two-toed sloth. The three-toed sloth with a distinctive brown neck and black markings around its beseeching eyes, is the most common sloth species to spot.
Sloths have the slowest digestion system of any mammal. It can take them two weeks to fully digest a meal! In an effort to conserve energy, sloths have evolved to do less rather than eat more. They can spend up to 20 hours a day sleeping to conserve energy.
