| 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:Koalas eat the eucalyptus leaves of trees in Australia. They have large, wide faces, white ears and smooth black noses which all make them look like small bears. They live a very low energy lifestyle and sleep 18 hours a day. |
