e.The sloth pays so little attention to its personal hygiene that green algae grow on its coarse hair and communities of a parasitic moth live in the depths of its coat producing caterpillars which graze on its mouldy hair. Its muscles are such that it is quite incapable of moving at a speed of over a kilometer an hour even over the shortest distances and the swiftest movement it can make is a sweep of its hooked arm. It is virtually dumb and its hearing is so poor that you can let off a gun within inches of it and its only response will be to turn slowly and blink.
樹懶極不講究衛(wèi)生,以至它粗糙的毛發(fā)上生出了綠色的藻類,成群的寄生蛾生長在它的皮毛深處,產(chǎn)下以它的臟毛為食物的毛毛蟲。它的肌肉不能讓它哪怕在很短的距離內(nèi)以每小時一公里的速度移動。它能做的最敏捷的動作就是揮一揮它那彎曲的胳膊。樹懶簡直就是聾子,聽覺能力糟糕透頂,以至于你能在離它幾英寸的距離開一槍,而它唯一的反應(yīng)也只不過是緩緩地扭一下頭,眨眨眼。
