Sloth Soft Toy

With its dangly, furry arms and adorable face, this super-soft sloth was made for hugging. In the jungles of Central and South America though, sloths use these long limbs to slowly move between branches and their hair is home to many different organisms, including microbes and moths.

All of it this cuddly toy’s brown fur is made with 40% recycled plastic (polyethylene terephthalate), known as RPET, whereas the squidgy stuffing is 100%.

Extinct species of sloths were much, much bigger than today’s. Why not come and see the awesome 3.5-metre tall Megatherium skeleton at the Museum?
