How do three toed sloths defend themselves?

Three-toed sloths primarily defend themselves through camouflage and slow movement, blending into their leafy surroundings to avoid predators like jaguars and harpy eagles. Their greenish fur, which hosts algae, helps them to remain inconspicuous among trees. Additionally, sloths have sharp claws that can be used to inflict injury if threatened, though they rely more on stealth than aggression for survival.
