Apparently, it’s doing really well now.
And also they’re called “lazy bears” in Ecuador.
“Faultier” in german as well, “faul” = lazy and “tier” = animal
Same in Norwegian, dovendyr.
Doven = lazy, or more accurately, “action less”. Dyr = animal.
Can we cut these little guys some slack!? Jesus. Every nation on Earth piling on.
Cut them some slack?! They’ve got all the slack already!
Portuguese: bicho preguica
Preguiça: to feel lazy, “bicho”: a little less formal way to say animal
We literally called them lazies.
Haha that’s cool, I wonder if there are any languages where the sloth isn’t named after their slow nature?
In french we call them “paresseux” which means “lazy”
