Urban Sloths: Public Knowledge, Opinions, and Interactions

Animals, 2018
Free-range sloths living in an urban environment are rare. In this study, the opinions, attitudes, and interactions with a population of Bradypus variegatus were investigated through short, structured interviews of people in the pubic square where the ...

Evolutionary Specializations in the Venous Anatomy of the Two-Toed Sloth (Choloepus didactylus): Insights from CT-scan 3D Reconstructions

Animals
The venous anatomy of the two-toed sloth (Choloepus didactylus) remains poorly understood, particularly in living specimens due to the limitations of traditional cadaveric studies.

Virtual brain endocasts of the palaeanodont Metacheiromys marshi and the neurosensory evolution of early Pholidotamorpha

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 821-846, October 2026.
We describe the endocranial anatomy of Metacheiromys marshi. Decrease in olfaction and eye movement control occurred through time in Pholidotamorpha and is likely linked to fossorial adaptations. The development of the orbital gyrus might be related to the evolution of myrmecophagy and the emergence of a protrusile tongue in early Pholidotamorpha ...

Morphological analysis of teeth in Bradypus variegatus Schinz, 1825 (Mammalia, Bradypodidae)

Biotemas, 2016
Among the sloth species, we may highlight the Bradypus variegatus, found especially in northeastern Brazil. Given the importance and scarcity of information about the digestive tract of wild animals, this article aims to describe dental morphology in ...

Human Pressure Structures Range Contraction and Recovery Potential of the Snow Leopard

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
We developed a spatially explicit framework to quantify how human pressure influences range dynamics in the snow leopard. Our results reveal a consistent spatial filtering effect, where human footprint shapes patterns of contraction, persistence, and recovery potential.

Footprints preserve terminal Pleistocene hunt? Human-sloth interactions in North America [PDF]

, 2018
Predator-prey interactions revealed by vertebrate trace fossils are extremely rare. We present footprint evidence from White Sands National Monument in New Mexico for the association of sloth and human trackways.
