…to do this?
Scientists in the eastern German city of Jena said Wednesday they have finally given up after three years of failed attempts to entice a sloth into budging as part of an experiment in animal movement.
So what do you call a sloth who lies on the floor all day?
Mats! Perfect!
Axel Burchardt, a University of Jena’s Institute of Systematic Zoology and Evolutionary Biology spokesman sums up Mats’ academic curiousity…
“Mats obviously wanted absolutely nothing to do with furthering science,”
Yes, obviously. I bet he’d excel as a throw rug. Can I get funding for a study on that?
