It’s time for a dip! The pygmy three-toed sloth is the slowest moving land mammal in the world. They move around two metres per minute! However, when swimming, they’re capable of moving around three times faster. Their diet of leaves generates large amounts of gas in the sloth’s stomach, helping to keep them buoyant. | BBC Earth

Our new Linnes two-toed sloth baby looks to be very keen to wean! Baby sloths are typically nursed for around six months, but despite our newest addition being just five-weeks-old, it is already extremely eager to try mum’s crunchy vegetables for itself! We’re still not sure of the baby’s sex, so it hasn’t got a name yet, but keepers report it is big and very confident already! | Dudley Zoo
