It only took it 57 years and 3 months according to my calculations. So as long as it had over 1/2 a century's heads up, and a lifespan far in excess of all the other sloths.
Easy peasy after you work out the details, which are important because rumor has it that The devil's in them and that's a whole nother bag of worms.
Just for fun:
5,700 mi x 5,280 ft/mi = 30,096,000 ft
6 ft/min x 60 min/hr = 360 ft/ hr
30,096,000 ft / 360ft/hr = 83,600 hrs
83,600 hrs / 4 hrs/day = 20,900 days (fn1)
20,900 days / 365.25 days/yr = 57.22 yrs.
Life expectancy of a sloth in the wild is 20 to 30 years.
footnote 1: This assumes the entire four hours the sloth is awake is used for travel in the most direct line. A more realistic assumption is two hours per day travel, which would also include adjustment for minimal detours. This would increase the overall time to more than a century.
You put some work into that
Yet they didn't miss the boat. Hmm
@Snickers77 Ah! Now I get it LOL
@Snickers77, maybe, but dubious. See my computations above.
