Sloth Bear  

Sloth bears have a unique dietary adaptation with a specialized lip that allows them to suck up insects like termites and ants.

They are nocturnal creatures, spending most of their time foraging at night.

Sloth bears have a distinctive shaggy coat and a white or cream-colored chest patch that resembles a crescent moon.

They lack upper incisors, which aids in their specialized feeding habits.

Sloth bears are known to be solitary animals, with males and females coming together only during the mating season.

They have a keen sense of smell, which helps them locate insect nests and ripe fruits.
