Still hopeful to get some raccoons in, but here are today's capybara and sloths. :)

One is two toed and one is three toed, for wholesome sloth rep.

The capybara have a dragonfly, a frog, and an orange on their heads respectively.

Off to make dinner!

Two toed sloths and three toed sloths are each others closest relatives, so it’s a little confusing, but they separated 28 million years ago, you know all the extinct giant ground sloths? The two types of modern sloth are basically two different branches of ground sloth that went up in the trees and survived the extinctions that killed all their relatives, some Caribbean sloths also went in the trees independently but went extinct anyway

28 MILLION YEARS?? THAT'S CRAZY
