| Description | Description:Hoffman’s two-toed sloth lives in tropical forest trees of Nicaragua, Peru, Central Brazil, and northern South America. They spend their lives hanging upside down: eating, sleeping, mating, and even giving birth in an upside down position. Walking is not in their nature, so they only crawl when on ground. | Description:Squirrel monkeys have distinctive bright yellow legs and tails of up to 16 inches in length. These long tails provide good balance for tree climbers. These are extremely social monkeys that noisily move about trees in large troops of as many as 500. |
