The answers to these questions, and more, are found in this wonderfully entertaining celebration of the sloth. Walking readers through the sloth''s evolutionary history - from the prehistoric ground sloth to modern pygmy - William Hartston reveals the sloth''s fascinating journey from maligned mammal to cause célèbrePlayfully peppered with science and filled with factoids, Sloths is a love-letter to the most anachronistic, and just a little bit ridiculous, of animals.
