As you know by now, sleep is an essential, and very important, part of human life. Getting the proper amount of sleep allows us to function both physically and mentally throughout the day and lead a healthy life.
Sleep is also an essential part of animal life.
Thatâs right, our furry friends couldnât do what they do without sleep either.
That being said, here are a few in restful slumber:

This pair is sleeping nice and soundly together. Of course, this wouldn’t be the case if one of them were snoring.

Sleep Fact: Did you know that sloths sleep 10 hours a day?
Hopefully not just in this position. That looks like a sore neck waiting to happen!

A sloth canât compare to this koala who sleeps a total of 22 hours a day — thatâs 90% of his day spent sleeping!
Adults only need about 7-9 hours of sleep a night in comparison.
Are you struggling to get in your 7-9 hours of sleep every night? There might be more to the problem than simply bad sleeping habits. Sleep apnea could be cause for your restlessness.
Letâs figure it out together.

Just a hedgehog among friends.
Sleep Fact: Hedgehogs are nocturnal, so they sleep during the day.
You also might be dozing off during the day like our small friend here if you have sleep apnea and are unable to sleep properly at night.

Sleep Fact: Itâs unlikely that youâve ever seen a giraffe sleeping, because they only require a snooze time of thirty minutes per day.
Until the 1950s, researchers didnât think they slept at all!
Donât get stuck sleeping like a giraffe.
