Rare Footage of Sloth Drinking Water

47s

Until recently, it was assumed that sloths didn't need to drink water, and that they got water from the food they ate. Now we know that isn't true, and you can see it for yourself in this extremely rare footage showing how a sloth drinks! Learn more about the secret lives of sloths in episode 3 of In Her Nature.
