Sloths slow movements and mainly nocturnal habits generally do not attract the attention of predators such as jaguars and harpy eagles. All they do is slow down. Due to their slow rate of digestion the sloths four-chambered stomach is constantly full.

While turtles are usually slow on land this is not the case in the water.

Conventional wisdom has it that sloths are. It takes them 50 days to digest a fully leafed meal. Why are sloths so slow. They cant run away from predators like a monkey would and instead they have to rely on camouflage.
