Sloth lovers appear to be separated into two groups: those that think sloths are incredibly cute and cuddly, and those that think that the "cuddly" part is regularly "forced" upon others. Both me and my best friend Kaity are a part of this sloth obsession, however we are part of the group that see sloths as incredible cute and cuddly.
One possible reason why sloths became so popular was when Kristen Bell confessed of her love for sloths on the Ellen Show.
However, there is a sloth which has been with us who made sloths cool before they were... well... cool. Sid the sloth from ice age has almost been forgotten amongst all the excitement about sloths. As much of a shame as this is, with the Ice Age movies continuing to be brought out, I doubt he will ever be forgotten.
Sloths appear almost harmless because of their slow movements and apparent stupidity. They are so slow that algae and moss can grow on their fur and so stupid that some even grab their own arms, mistaking them for branches, and fall out of trees. However, if you did not know these things about sloths, I think you would be pretty scared if this came after you:
Personally, I would be terrified.
To finish off this post, as it may be my last, I give you, the reader, a gift. Here is a video of baby sloths learning to climb:
And another, inspirational little clip:
Out of all the sins, I choose sloth... because they're cute.
