'''Giant sloths''' are oversized variants of the common [[sloth]]. Like the other sloth creatures, giant sloths are quite [[gait|slow]]. Because of this, giant sloths are not particularly dangerous, especially when serving as [[mount|mounts]] during a [[siege]]. In this situation they are actually detrimental to the rider, being slower than any [[goblin]] or [[elf]] would be even if they had both legs taken out from under them.

'''Giant sloths''' are oversized variants of the common [[sloth]]. Like the other sloth creatures, giant sloths do not have a reduction in [[gait|speed]], making them just as fast as many other animals. Despite their unexpected speed, giant sloths are not particularly dangerous, even when serving as [[mount]]s during a [[siege]].  
  
Giant sloths can be captured, [[animal trainer|tamed]], and bred for [[meat]] or [[pet]]s; though their only notable trait over other [[grazer|non-grazing]] giant creatures is that they are somewhat easier to keep track of. Some dwarves [[preference|prefer]] giant sloths for their "''slow movement''".
