Here we have some very recognisable animals! They are both specialised feeders. Sloths’ diet consists mostly of leaves. Hard to digest, the animals need to rest a lot. Low on nutrients, it pays to conserve energy. 

On the other hand the anteaters. Their food is fast and bitey, mostly small insects. So after detecting a new source of food, they gobble up as much as they can, as fast as they can and then move on. To break up the insects, anteaters have strong stomachs.

These furry friends (Pilosa translates to “hairy“) are all drawn to scale (1:7) and the scientific classification shows their relation.
