Uhh…..now y'all done put his ass BACK where he done came from….and it took him about a WEEK to get across the damn street! LawwwdHammercy!!
Sloth: “Whoa, slow down buddy!”
How the hell these things have survived darwinism is incredible.
Little buddy needed some help
There you go right next to the road where you will be safe. At least put them in the forest.
those nails?… very familiar… aaaah… seen them on some women… so that's where the trend was copied…😅😅😅
That sloth probably felt like he was flying at high speeds.
Why did they lay him on the ground????? Never leave a sloth on the ground. Nearest tree, ALWAYS.
Just as the Sloth had changed its mind and was about to go back
Don't understand how slothes 🦥 can survive and finding foods for themselves as they are walking so so slow 🥺
Let himself climbing to enjoy the modern road of Human beings 😑
What this jerk didn’t realize is that the sloth was almost across the road not just getting started. Thanks mate! Now I gotta go all the way back!!
En Guyane française
Never mess with a sloth!
Behind the cuteness there are some razor sharp teeth for their self defence, in case they needed your help just handle them with care and stay safe!
Wait do he did it once and then again for the camera… smh

It's amazing that they survive, as slow as they are.
Sloths are very interesting critters. I've been up close to them in Costa Rica. Sometimes they spend a week eating someone's hedge. 😂
Whatta fly sloth

Sloth: "Hands up don't shoot!😰😰😰"
That sloth probably thought he was going the speed of sound.
How slow he sat up 🥺🥺
Un geste qui fait du bien à la terre 🌍 merci 🙏👍
