Description
Unlike most mammals, sloths spend most of their lives hanging upside-down from tree branches, so their legs are adapted for that purpose. When this stuffed plush is sitting upright, its long toes point inward like a wiggly, wriggly little kid, and with its extra soft fur and sweet face, who can resist giving it a snuggle?
