Pilosa

The order Pilosa is a group of mammals that includes two extant families: anteaters and sloths. They are known for their unique adaptations, such as the elongated snouts of anteaters and the long, curved claws of both groups, which aid in climbing trees and grasping food. Despite their slow and deliberate movements, they are highly specialized and successful in their ecological niches.
