The only thing cuter than a sloth is a pygmy sloth

20 miles off the coast of Panama in Central America there’s a tiny island that’s home to a unique species of tiny sloths. The pygmy sloths of Escudo Island, Panama have evolved in isolation and shrunk to about half the size of the normal three-fingered sloths found on the mainland. They live in the mangrove swamps where they’re fond of eating a vine that is known to have similar properties to Valium. So they don’t just look stoned, they are stoned. For thousands of years these mellow midgets have hung out on their paradise island, free from predators. But a recent scientific expedition has revealed that there are now less than 100 sloths left as their mangrove home is being destroyed and local fishermen have taken to killing the slow moving stoners and eating them! They urgently need your help so please click here to donate a few pennies to help the unique evolutionary treasure that is dwarf sloth island.

Heartwarming Tearjerker of the Day: Four-year-old comic book fan Anthony Smith is deaf in his right ear and has hearing damage in his left. He also refused to wear his hearing aid (which he calls “Blue Ear” because it is blue), because “superheroes don’t wear hearing aids.” So in a long-shot attempt to help her son, Anthony’s mom emailed Marvel for ideas.

“She didn’t know a specific person to write to here at Marvel, and even figured it might get caught in our spam filters, but she sent it in anyway, because that’s the kind of great parent Christina is,” said Marvel editor Bill Rosemann. “And it was her inspiring effort to help her son that touched so many of us here. As a fellow parent of a toddler, I can understand where she’s coming from, so I forwarded the email around the rest of Editorial, asking what we could do to help, and like when Cap yells, ‘Avengers Assemble,’ the gang leapt into action.”

Not only did Anthony receive an image of the superhero Hawkeye, who lost 80 percent of his hearing back in the ’80s and wore hearing aids — Anthony also received a drawing, by Nelson Ribeiro in Collected Editions, of a brand-new superhero: “Blue Ear.”

Now, with his hearing aid back in, Anthony is able to “fight battles and help people.” His preschool, for hearing-impaired kids, recently hosted a superhero week to inspire the students to overcome their limitations.

DON’T miss the video. It’s the best thing you’ll see all day.
