I chose the three toed sloth. It turns out that they are very close to extinction and we are a main reason for that. Of course they have natural predators, but they only kill off the sloths to keep themselves alive and not nearly enough of them to threaten their existence. We on the other hand are wiping out their natural habitat at an alarming rate. They have nowhere to thrive and therefore, nowhere to live.
I chose the three toed sloth because I thought it looked interesting and cool, but I later found out just how threatened their whole species is. You can help them in several different ways. First of all, buy local produce. You can support local farmers instead of the farms that force the rainforest to be cut down in South America. You can also recycle paper to save trees from being wasted. And lastly, you can simply donate to a charity for endangered animals like the World Wildlife Fund.
