Giant Anteater

Dalí had a pet-anteater (poor thing), that’s why the painter also appears in this drawing. Baby anteaters ride their mothers backs and sleep cuddled in their furry tails.

If slow and steady wins the race, then sloths must be up to their button-like eyes in gold medals. Related to anteaters, these arboreal folivores make their home in the forest, where their leisurely outlook on life has paid off well—they are some of the most successful large mammals in Central and tropical South America.
