I WONDER - Why Are Sloths So Slow?

Sloths have a very low metabolism, requiring them to conserve energy by moving slowly. They rarely stray far from their homes and rely on their natural camouflage to protect themselves from predators. This camouflage is enhanced by algae and moss that grow on their fur, making them blend in with the trees they inhabit.

Why do Softs move slowly?

What happens to the algae and moss when Softs sleep in trees?
