大家还记得疯狂动物城里那只慢得让人抓狂的三趾树懒“闪电”么？这只“左手右手全都是慢动作”的树懒成了网友心目中的最萌配角。其实“闪电”的性格都是根据树懒的真实形象打造的。树懒虽然有脚但是却不能走路，靠的是前肢拖动身体前行，所以可以想象它行动起来有多缓慢了。据说树懒全速前进可以每秒移动6厘米，每7到10天才到树下排便一次，其他时间都在树上一动不动，堪称世界上最懒的动物了。
但是日前有背包客在哥斯达黎加目击到了一只做瑜伽的树懒，这只热爱运动的树懒着实让人们大开眼界，也许树懒并没有我们想象的那么懒。
Sloths are famous for being the laziest members of the animal kingdom, so one particularly sprightly member of the species caused quite a stir when it was spotted doing yoga on the side of the road in Costa Rica.
人们都认为树懒是全天下最懒的动物，所以当几个背包客在哥斯达黎加某条马路边看到一只热爱运动的树懒时，大家都惊讶不已。
The animal was caught in a stretch pose by a couple of passing backpackers, who decided to join it for a few moves.
一对路过的背包客恰好目击了这只树懒正在做的拉伸运动，连忙抓拍了几张照片并决定跟着这只树懒大师做做运动，活动下筋骨。
Aussie backpacker Claudia Moser, 33, who's currently travelling through Central America with her British partner Anthony Pace, 30, were treated to the ultimate off-the-beaten-track experience when they spotted the sloth on the side of a road.
图中的女子名叫克劳迪娅•莫泽，今年33岁，来自澳洲。她跟来自英国的男友，30岁的安东尼•佩斯在中美洲旅行的时候在路边目睹了这幕前所未有的景象。
In what appears to be the sloth taking a moment to hold his gate pose - practiced by yogis around the world - Claudia couldn't resist mimicking the sloth in its moment of tranquility.
不知道出于什么原因，这只树懒一直保持着这个瑜伽经典动作，惹得克劳迪娅也忍不住跟着模仿了起来。
The budding photographers were luckily armed with their cameras and captured this rare photo of the notoriously slow creature set amongst the lush green surrounds.
而身为摄影新手的安东尼恰好随身携带了相机，于是他很幸运地捕捉到了这一难得一见的场景——平时一直被嘲笑懒惰的动物竟然在草丛中舒展身体。
Claudia, from Bondi, in Sydney, said: 'We were on a shuttle bus taking us from Moin to Cahuita, when our driver suddenly stopped and pointed out the sloth on the road.
来自悉尼邦代的克劳迪娅说：“当时我们坐在一辆从穆因开往卡胡塔的班车上，突然，我们的司机把车停了下来指着那只树懒叫我们看。”
'I couldn't believe it when I spotted he was doing my favourite yoga pose. Sloths are supposed to be lazy.
她说，“我简直不敢相信它竟然做着我平时最喜欢的瑜伽动作。树懒不应该是很懒的么？”
'I've been practicing yoga for years, so I had to join the sloth on the grassy verge and get into position. It was so much fun.
“我已经练瑜伽好多年了，于是我加入了树懒的行列，在草地上摆起了那个POSE，真的好搞笑啊。”
'We only had a few minutes as we had to continue on our journey and I was worried about the sloth's safety. But our driver assured us he was 100 percent safe.
克劳迪娅表示，“因为行程问题，我们当时只有短短几分钟的停留时间，但我很担心这只树懒的安全，但我们的司机却向我们保证说它是百分之百安全的。”
'Apparently they only come down from their tree every six to seven days to go to the toilet. I'm sure we will see more of them as we continue our travels, but I doubt any of them will be as sporty as this sprightly sloth. '
“据说树懒每过6到7天才会从树上爬下来上厕所，我相信我们在接下来的旅途中应该可以看见更多的树懒，但我很怀疑还能不能找到运动细胞这么好的！”她说。
