Sloths not that slothful after all

Personally I think sloths are kinda cool.
So I’m glad that new research suggests that they might have gotten a bit of a bad rap as… well… sloths.
People used to think that sloths slept for 16 hours a day, but German and US scientists published a study in the Royal Society journal Biology Letters that found that they actually sleep for only ten, making them not very different from us humans.
