I'll be reviewing this article. I'll give it a read through now and add any points I see below. Miyagawa (talk) 18:36, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

• Lead: For some reason I don't think that "The odd appearance had been caused by underwater decomposition, and the sloth was buried." flows right. Can I suggest "The odd appearance had been caused by underwater decomposition. Once identified, the corpse was buried." ?
  • I agree. To avoid short sentences, I've changed it to "The odd appearance had been caused by underwater decomposition, which had resulted in hair loss. Once identified, the corpse was buried." Does that work better? J Milburn (talk) 20:01, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
    • Thanks, that works even better. Miyagawa (talk) 10:04, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

Actually, after reading the article through three times and trying to find further issues, I can't find fault with the rest of the article. Very nice job, placing it on hold so you can fix the line in the lead. Miyagawa (talk) 19:22, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
