This is What a Sloth Crossing the Road Looks Like [Video]

Please insert obligatory “why did the sloth cross the road” joke here.

I haven’t spent a lot of time around three-toed sloths, but I never imagined that this is how they look when moving across the ground. With an incredible reach, amusing short hind legs, and an unshakable look of calm, this sloth slowly makes his way toward a road in Costa Rica. If you’ve ever wondered how a sloth reacts to being picked up from behind, be sure to watch all the way through.
