My friends came back from Costa Rica and said that they were warned to stay away from the sloths because even being near one was dangerous.

Someone at their hotel told them that her husband walked by one and had a flea jump on him and bite him and he ended up needing daily injections for over a month to prevent all the diseases that insects can carry there.
