Did you know about some moth,
that they get shelter by the sloth?
But also every butterfly,
is a welcome flutter-by!

Sloth fur harbors a diverse ecosystem of insects and algae including some species which are exclusively found in sloth fur. They are living in symbiosis, each species benefits from the other. The sloth moth eats the algae, the algae lives from the moth feces. The algae supplements the sloth's nutrient-poor diet of leaves.
