Apparently, it's doing really well now.

And also they're called "lazy bears" in Ecuador.

In french we call them "paresseux" which means "lazy"

"Faultier" in german as well, "faul" = lazy and "tier" = animal

Same in Norwegian, dovendyr.

Doven = lazy, or more accurately, "action less". Dyr = animal.

Portuguese: bicho preguica

Preguiça: to feel lazy, "bicho": a little less formal way to say animal
