    Apparently, it’s doing really well now.

    And also they’re called “lazy bears” in Ecuador.

      Haha that’s cool, I wonder if there are any languages where the sloth isn’t named after their slow nature?

    Aww. He looks suspiciously calm. Like as soon as the officer puts him somewhere safe he’s going to walk back into the danger.

    Alright, we’ll give you really cool claws, but the trade-off is that you’ll move with the speed of darkness.

      Speed of darkness

      Isn’t that basically exactly the same as the speed of light? 🤨

        Hehe, probably. It’s just something I like to say, with the implication being that if the speed of light is fast, then the speed of darkness must be slow. It stands to reason, right?
