The sloths in these photos are Hoffmann's two-toed sloths. If you look closely, you can see that they have only two toesâor fingersâon each front foot. (Some other sloth species have three front toes.) But those toes are very important! Their long, curved claws keep sloths firmly attached to tree branches. And those claws are their only defense against predators.
The three-toed sloths are tree-living mammals from South and Central America. They are the only members of the genus Bradypus and the family Bradypodidae. The four living species of three-toed sloths are the brown-throated sloth, the maned sloth, the pale-throated sloth, and the pygmy three-toed sloth.elation to the two-toed sloth [edit]. Although similar to the somewhat larger and generally faster-moving two-toed sloths, the two genera are placed in different families.
