Additional Notes: |
|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 含兩種樹棲哺乳類動物的屬，以緩慢的動作著名，原產於中南美洲的低地熱帶林，與二趾樹懶不同之處在於，牠們體型較小，移動速度也稍慢，大部分時間顛倒懸掛於樹枝上，而非坐在樹上。 |
| Dutch ..... Leden van een genus van twee soorten in bomen levende zoogdieren die bekend staan om hun trage bewegingen en die inheems zijn in de laaglanden van de tropische bossen van Zuid- en Midden-Amerika. Ze verschillen van drievingerige luiaards doordat ze kleiner zijn, zich iets trager voortbewegen en meestal ondersteboven aan een boomtak hangen in plaats van in bomen te zitten. |
