2 African Lion
Love lions - ElSherlock
You're kidding, right? The sloth 3 places better than the lion? Go watch Lion King, go on a savannah safari. Which animal seems more majestic, a LION or the sloth that does absolutely nothing?
Lions area awesome. I know almost everything that is fascinating about a lion.
Seriously, if the lion wasn't in first place, I was going to have a fit.
