Sloths smell like the jungle. And it makes perfect sense: they don’t have body odor because camouflage is not only visual. Sloths blend into the rainforest in every way. They smell like moss, leaves, bark, and soil after the rain. Their fur hosts microbes, algae, fungi, and moths that help mask their scent in the forest. Another clever strategy to avoid predators.

How does a sloth hide in plain sight? 🌳🦥 The three-toed sloth carries its own camouflage: algae growing in its fur. In return, bugs and other tiny creatures find shelter there, forming a miniature ecosystem high in the treetops. It’s a quiet reminder of the harmony God wove into creation. | Creation Sabbath
