We have already talked about how some Brazilian ambassadors presented Queen Elizabeth with a jaguar to show off their fauna. You may be shocked to learn that, in addition to her collection of jaguars, the Queen also brought back a couple sloths from her trip!

Given that sloths are native to Brazil, the government bestowed upon them an extraordinary present. Due to their special requirements, the sloths were adopted by the London Zoo as soon as they arrived in the country.
