Agonistic Behavior by Three-toed Sloths, Bradypus variegatus

Biotropica, 1989
A three-toed sloth (Bradypus variegatus) rapidly ascended a cecropia tree, fought briefly and intensely with another adult male, and descended even more rapidly. Fighting was accompanied by short, strident vocalizations. The aggressor perhaps detected the occupant from a distance using the sexually dimorphic dorsal markings.

Comparative Phylogeography of the Atlantic Forest Endemic Sloth (Bradypus torquatus) and the Widespread Three-toed Sloth (Bradypus variegatus) (Bradypodidae, Xenarthra)

Genetica, 2006
The comparative phylogeographic study of the maned sloth (Bradypus torquatus) and the three-toed sloth (Bradypus variegatus) was performed using a segment of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region. We examined 19 B. torquatus from two regions and 47 B. variegatus from three distant regions of Atlantic forest.

Blood pressure regulation in the three-toed sloth, Bradypus variegatus

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2007
The aim of this study was to elucidate the role of the baroreflex in blood pressure control in sloths, Bradypus variegatus, since these animals show labile levels in this parameter. Unanesthetized cannulated sloths were positioned in an experimental chair and the arterial catheter was coupled to a strain gauge pressure transducer.
