SUMMERTIME CELEBRATION

This is a depiction of what the Sloth Bear would look like if he happened to be filmed rolling around doing somersaults in a grassy field. Enjoy!

Tenderness

If you are ever traveling to a cold or snowy location, it would behoove you to bring along a Sloth Bear friend.

THE SLOTHNESS MONSTER

Sloth Bear IS NOT having it.

DOODLES OF THE DAY

I used to have an office job.  I'm a talking on the phone doodler, not sure who Damon is... probably the guy on the phone.

Stoner hippy guy.

Sloth Bear's uncle Carl crashes my birthday party!!!

Yes, this is the infamous uncle Carl.  Carl showed up uninvited to my birthday gathering and proceeded to drink too much and whisper inappropriate things in my ear.  He must have thought Elana was half bear since he kept mistaking her for his wife.  Guess Carl was too inebriated to realize she was just wearing a furry jacket!!!!  Elana's boyfriend finally had enough of Carl's getting fresh with his lady and told that dingy bear where to go.  Hey Uncle Carl, lay off the sauce and people might ACTUALLY INVITE you to their parties!!

Sloth Moves

This is my first attempt to recreate through stop motion drawings, what the Sloth Bear would look like if he were to dance and flip around to a Black Flag song.

SLOTH BEARS FOUND TO HAVE PARTICIPATED IN THE GOLD RUSH OF 1849

While researching the origins of Sloth Bear and his migration to North America, I discovered there was as strong Sloth Bear presence during the great gold rush of 1849. Photographs and documents prove that a family of Sloth-like prospectors lived in the Sacramento area of Northern California. Ezra Augustus Slothburger, Lotta Slothburger, and Hezekiah Grrrrruber were registered miners at the Golden Goldy Goldfields camp just east of the American River.
It is widely believed that Ezra Slothburger was quite successful in his prospecting. He was credited with both discovering the technique of "panning" for gold and was the first to use the phrase "THERE'S GOLD IN THEM THAR HILLS!!!!!"
Ezra's sister, Lotta Slothburger, went on to be one of the most famous mining camp entertainers. She would enchant the rugged men of the goldfields with her otherworldly voice, comedic acting, and naive charm. She wasn't much to look at, but boy could that sloth dance the soft shoe.

The Slothburger's cousin, Hezekiah Grrrruber, was know around the south fork of the American River as a shady character. The above photograph shows a greedy Grrrruber diving for a pan filled with gold nuggets, hoping that the members of his camp would be distracted by the flash of the camera. This was not the case, and Hezekiah was soon kicked out of the camp and left to fend for himself. Grrrruber didn't have much luck finding gold on his own, and ended up poor and eventually succumbing to cholera....or was it diphtheria, or was it typhoid fever... either way it was some kind of old timey pioneer disease.
Ezra Slothburger flourished during these times, but he was not without his rivals. Howard W. Rwrarrrrlings had it out for Ezra and even competed with him over the hand of Mary Frances Boone, who was of non-bear decedent. Ezra Slothburger was clearly WAY better looking and eventually went on to marry Ms. Boone. Mary Frances bore them one child, a son who is pictured below.
Apparently the Sloth Bear genes are so dominant that they negate all human influence.
