Two weird animals

 

1. PYGMY SLOTH

This one is the favorite species by far. It lives on an island off the coast of Panama. They hang out in the mangrove swamps where they like to eat a special algae that scientists have discovered contains a chemical that has a similar effect to Valium. So these sleepy sloths don’t just look stoned, they are stoned.

 

 

 

 

2. ECHIDNA

The echidna is an ancient termite-eating mammal from the topsy-turvy island of Australia that still shares features with our reptile ancestors. Instead of giving birth to live young, the females still lay eggs. But the oddness doesn’t end there. Most of the year it is hidden inside but in breeding season it pops out, like a rubber glove, ready for action.
