Three-toed Sloth

Isn't our Three-Toed Sloth adorable?



This plastic three-toed sloth is beautifully detailed, with nicely moulded fur and facial features. Each foot has three long claws on it. Our plastic sloth measures 3 inches high to the top of its head, and 3 1/4 inches to the top of its arm. The bottom of the sloth is flat so it can sit easily on a table or shelf. The words "brady podidae" are moulded into the bottom. That should be "bradypodidae" (all one word), which is the family name of this sloth. The plastic sloth's yellow-gold coloring and dusky face are like those of a real sloth. These rainforest animals are distributed throughout Central and South America. You can see photos and learn more about this animal on the University of Michigan's Animal Diversity Web page for three-toed sloths. Come check out our other sloth toys and gifts.
