#SlothFact 🦥 How long is the lifespan of wild sloths? Nobody knows! It is almost impossible to determine the age of a wild sloth. For most animals, their age can be estimated based on the length or wear and tear of their claws or teeth, but sloths are hypsodonts – their teeth and nails grow continuously throughout their lives and are continuously worn down.
