Though many people consider sloths silent creatures, these animals interact—especially during significant events like mother-infant bonding. Particularly, young sloths are surprisingly noisy; they squeal high-pitched when separated from their mothers. As a distress call, this sound guides mother sloths toward their offspring so they might help in their reunion. The vocalization is quite important in dense jungle surroundings, where vision is limited, and sounds transfer better than sight.

Many people view sloths as quiet, slow-moving animals that spend their days hanging slackly in trees without regard for anything. They have developed a reputation for being mild and benign from this appearance. However, is this accurate? Can sloths show hostility, and what sets off that?

Though they appear beautiful, these actions are not what they seem.

Understanding these differences can help one to appreciate the unique contributions each provides to animal care and conservation.
