Callum Watson
Compared to most mammals, a sloth moves very slowly. Sloths can climb only 6 to 8 feet (1.8 to 2.4 meters) per minute.

 Did you know that Buckingham Palace has 775 rooms. These include 19 State rooms, 52 Royal and guest bedrooms, 188 staff bedrooms, 92 offices and 78 bathrooms. That means there are a lot of toilets to clean!

Each tree produces approximately 30 pods a year. Each pod contains roughly 40 cocoa beans. It takes approximately 500 beans to make 1 pound of chocolate, so therefore each tree produces about 2 pounds of chocolate a year.

Did you know that Stone Age families had dogs as pets? They used them to help warn them of dangerous animals!
