Sloths can swim surprisingly well. They swim right-side up using a
type of overhand stroke.

Amazing no one heard him climbing across the hull to the nets. He had
to come up the anchor line of swim platform.

Unlike any of you... I've been in the Amazon and held a Sloth in my arms...
the fur is surprisingly stiff and bristle like. The animal is also very
strong. They are much bigger than a house cat! The Sloth we rescued was on
his way down the Rio Negro floating on a tangle of brush... heading to the
Atlantic.

BTW- I didn't need to provide the Brazilian Customs with retinal scan nor
fingerprints.

The W3 designation I hold is by virtue of birth only. Brazil requires a
valid passport, return travel and indication you have the means to pay for
services... ethnic origin or skin colour is not an issue for entry to
Brazil.

You think if I were of Arabic descent entering the USA... that I would be
treated with the same disdain Brazilians afford US citizens?

That's right, you never see a black ant at a red ant
wedding.
