FUN FACTS: Four species of anteaters and six species of sloths form the order Pilosa. Along with armadillos in the order Cingulata, they are in the magnorder Xenarthra, which is Greek for "strange joint." The name comes from a feature unique to xenarthrans: special articulations between the vertebrae in the lower back. Animals in this magnorder also have fused pelvic bones and lack incisors and canines. Anteaters are in the suborder of Pilosa called Vermilingua (animals with a worm-like tongue).
