The world of health and wellness has increasingly embraced cannabidiol (CBD) as a natural remedy for
a variety of ailments.

A video of a sloth being carried across a road to safety has gone viral, with viewers saying it is 'too pure
for this world'. 

The footage, captured by Adriane Gonçalves Serrão of Caieiras,
Brazil, shows the moment a man swooped down to pick up a sloth that was attempting
to cross a road and take it to a nearby tree.



At the end of the clip, which was shared on Twitter, the sloth turns
around and seems to thank the man by gently touching his hand
with his three-fingered-paw. 

Animal lovers swooned over the 'beautiful' interaction and said it was
the 'best thing they had seen'. 

However an expert warned the sloth was not thanking the rescuer, but was protecting
itself from a perceived threat.

People lauded the 'beautiful' interaction and said sloths are 'too
pure for this world' after the video went viral 

The Good Samaritan stopped traffic and parked his car in the middle of the road to rescue the animal, which was slowly making
its way across. 

An adult sloth can reach speeds of up to 0.27 km/h. In comparison, humans walk at an average pace of
5km per hour.

The man gently picked the animal up using a towel, prying his paws off the road. 

Once he had crossed the road, he gently held the animal up to a tree trunk for it to latch onto, and
patted its back reassuringly.

After it got a lift, the animal turned around to look
at the man, left, and then extended its arm to him, right.

Viewers thought it looked like a 'thank you' - but actually it's a
sign of protection

After it found the best branch to stick to, the animal turned around and extended its arm to the man, in a gesture many took to be a show
of gratitude. 

However Dr Rebecca Cliffe, founder and executive director of the Sloth Conservation Foundation, explained the
sloth was trying to protect itself.   

She said: 'Lots of people think that when sloths put their arms out
like this that they are waving or saying hello, or even asking for a hug.

Of course, this isn't true at all. 

'Sloths are a prey species with no effective way to defend themselves against predators. 

'When scared and feeling threatened, they will often put their arms out like this to
make themselves appear larger. It is essentially a stress response
that a lot of people misinterpret.'  









People swooned over the sweet interaction as some said it was the most beautiful thank you they had ever seen 

However few viewers interpreted the signal correctly and took to Twitter to gush over the moment. 

One posted: 'Just one of the most beautiful thankyou's I have ever seen! Thank you for sharing this remarkable clip!
Beautiful beyond words.'

 'Actual tears,' said one, while another wrote: 'They are too pure for
this world.'

 'I'll be watching this video the rest of the day if anyone needs
me,' another said. 

'Thanks - what a lovely way to start the day,
a wondrous creature and an act of kindness,' said another.
