The vulture in the tree only ruffled its feathers. It was enormous, as broad as a Labrador around the middle, and its eyes watched the tiny animal hungrily.

Above their heads rose a great flowering white tree. From one of the branches hung a small animal, unlike anything Fred had ever seen before. It was looking up with huge eyes at a vulture in the branches above its head.
On the ground below it were three chunks of pineapple, untouched. And some distance away two more vultures crouched over the corpse of a larger version of the same animal.
“Get away!” yelled Lila. She ran forward, kicking at the birds. “Get away from it!”
The two vultures on the ground took off, startled, but the vulture in the tree only ruffled its feathers. It was enormous, as broad as a Labrador around the middle, and its eyes watched the tiny animal hungrily.
The animal on the branch let out a mew like a cat. It was grey-brown with a cream face, a dog-like snout and immense black eyes. Its arms were long and chicken-bone thin, ending in curved claws. It was small enough to cup in your hands.
Lila ran to the base of the tree, gripped the lowest branch and scrabbled with her feet against the trunk. The vulture, feeling the tree shake, flapped its wings, cawed and disappeared. Lila hauled herself into the branches. Her knees were shaking. Her breath was unusually loud.
She sat on the branch where the animal was perched and began to scoot forward, both hands gripping tight. With quivering fingers, she unwound its legs from the branch and rewound them around her arm. The creature let out a mewling sound.

Lila began to edge backwards along the branch. Fred could hear her whispering prayers under her breath. She stumbled as she landed on the ground and half fell, but made sure to keep the arm with the animal high above her head.
Max ran to her. “What is it? Let me see!”
“It’s a sloth,” said Lila. Her voice was hushed with awe. “A baby sloth.”
Fred stepped closer. It was one of the most extraordinary things he’d ever seen. It was very ugly and very beautiful, both at once. Its fur still had the fluffiness of babyhood.
“Let’s make it play!” said Max. He grabbed at Lila’s arm.
“No!” Lila seized his wrist, cradling the sloth against her chest. “Don’t! You’ll hurt it!”
The brother and sister glared at each other. “No I won’t! I’ll be soft.”
“Maxi, you mustn’t. It’s terrified; it doesn’t have a mother to protect it. See, it’s shaking.”
“But I love it!” Max looked dangerously close to tears.
“But it doesn’t need you to love it to death. It needs us to be slow,” whispered Lila. “Come on, Maxie – let’s take it back to the camp. You can bring the pineapple.”
Back in the clearing Lila made a bed of soft grass for the sloth. She set it down on its stomach, where it lay quivering, and held out the pineapple to it.

Reveal Explainer
The use of the word ‘small’ makes the animal sound tiny and fragile. The presence of a vulture, which is a bird of prey, shows that the baby sloth is in immediate danger. The words ‘looking up with huge eyes’ at the vulture suggest the sloth is aware of the danger it is in and is unable to escape or protect itself.
