My picture is depicting how a three toed sloth may look in a thousand years or more adapting to climate change. The rainforest will become more dry and hot due to climate change. Sloths might become nocturnal, they avoid the heat by burying holes to sleep in during the day. At night they go out when it is cooler weather to eat plants and find water to drink. Sloths would have no fur since there is no need underground and it allows them to stay cool when they go out. Sloths might still climb trees when they are out to get to leaves and stay in high ground away from the rising sea levels.
