From its long tapering arms and the length of its body coupled with its claw-like fingers and toes, i declare that its a sloth specie. OP please bring it down to my lab for further analysis. Tasting might also solve the riddle as to what it actually is.

In a way you're making the very mistake you're attributing to others. Primordial African societies had their own order and belief systems. Contrary to what you may think, they didn't kill and eat any animal that moved. I'm sure if you read through the posts you may have seen respondents making coments such as "Op, you may have eaten your ancestor" such comments make reference to primordial beliefs in many Nigerian cultures that saw certain animals as reincarnated loved ones. this should tell you that such animals wouldn't be eaten. Indeed there are many species of animals held sacred by many African cultures. I believe that among my mothers people, the python is venrated. Many genuine "herberlits" ancestors never touched meat (we would call them vegetarians today) because they believed eating meat dulled thire abilities.

Anyway, the idea that nothing should be respected and ALL are fair game, is not African but the worldview of folks that have lost sense of themselves in the vast ghettos that plague the world.

We are literally surrounded by wild-life but we never appreciate them we just act like OP and kill them
look at the white man feeding a wild life.

I guess it's true what they say, when you have to much of something, you don't see it's value anymore.

Despite our number on nairaland, no one has been able to identify appropriately the animal in question.
I'm quitting NL if the identity is not decoded in the next 48hrs. Thanks
