Picture of a Sloth at 3:00PM slumberSloth spottings are a common occurrence in Heritage. On most days, waking up after 1:00PM is routine for sloths. Jay Rainey is the king of the sloth community in this neck of the woods. He can usually be seen in his active and natural habitat between the hours of 11PM and 5AM. During this time period you can see the sloth move from one place to another very slowly and with little communication other than the usual hhmmmppphhhhh. The sloth usually finds a nice place to lounge during the hours he is awake and doesn't take kindly to people that try to steal his stuff without permission. Thankfully for all of us, sloths are usually very ssssllloooowwwww to anger and often do not have the energy or will to do any retaliation if harm is caused to them. The only time sloths can be dangerous is when they are awoken from their mid afternoon slumber. I would advise never to do this. One kid did.....he got eaten.
Sloths do only make that one noise, but their slow movements and decision making make them easy targets to steal from, bum rides, and confuse....if I were Ash Ketchum "confusion" would be the best attack against a wild Sloth!
