You can learn how to draw a sloth step by step using this fascinating and clear tutorial. You will definitely enjoy this lesson if you like to draw animals. Sloths are mammals. They are slow and sluggish animals that live in the treetops. They spend much of their lives in the canopy, snoozing and remaining hidden from predators. Sloths have an extremely low metabolic rate, which means they move at a languid, sluggish pace through the trees.
