Taxidermy: Hoffmann's Two-toed Sloth (Choloepus hoffmanni), modern, a superb quality full mount adult, clinging to the underside of a bare tree stump, mounted above a soil covered base, overall height 73cm, animal length 44cm. Hoffmann's two-toed sloth is a heavily built animal with shaggy fur and slow, deliberate movements. The fore feet have only two toes, each ending with long, curved claws, although three clawed toes are on each of the hind feet. Other features that distinguish it from three-toed sloths, which may be found in the same geographic areas, include the longer snout, separate rather than partially fused toes of the forefeet, the absence of hair on the soles of the feet, and larger overall size. The wrist of the sloth has developed some specific traits due to their slow, yet acrobatic motions.
