Best Answer

That would be a sloth. They feed for only a few hours a day and their specific make up is such( they expend so little energy) that they usually leave the treetops once a week to defecate. Wrong , the correct answer is the Koala. Usually between 18 to 22 hours. They sleep a lot to conserve energy as their diet requires a lot of energy to digest.
