Bradypus: King of the Sloths

Professor Cornwall St. Francis had been trekking through the jungles of Panama when he came across a boy hanging in the trees.

“Hello there, young man,” cried the professor in the local dialect.

The boy slowly turned his head, “I’m Bradypus, King of the Sloths! I was raised by a pack of sloths after being abandoned by my parents.”

“A pack of sloths? You know those are predominantly solitary creatures, right?”

“Silence! Your ‘man-logic’ confuses and frightens me! Behold as I counter it with what I have learned from my sloth-parents!” Bradypus took a leaf and began to chew it slowly.
