Answer:

While sloths are lethargic and non-aggressive, they possess 4-inch claws that they use to defend themselves from predators. However, on the ground they can only travel about 53 feet per hour, making them easy to evade.

Although their claws are their primary means of defense, sloths have hard and sharp teeth that they can use to bite or nip at predators to warn them away. Their only natural predators are large cats and birds such as jaguars and eagles, though humans are known to shoot and kill them. While sloths rarely attack humans, their claws often keep them pinned to a tree branch even in death, deterring humans from targeting them.

Thus they are harmful
