Sloths are described as being so lazy they are even too lazy to breathe, and they can hold their breath for up to 40 minutes.
Infact verdict: Mostly True (64/100).
The claim that sloths are 'too lazy to breathe' is an opinion and metaphorical, reflecting their slow metabolism rather than actual laziness. Sloths' ability to hold their breath for up to 40 minutes is supported by multiple sources, attributing this to their slow metabolism and heart rate, which aids in survival by allowing them to evade predators and swim underwater.
