This is a two-part humor meme. The top text sets up the scenario: a zookeeper is carrying a sloth while moving at a regular human walking speed. The bottom section is a heavily motion-blurred close-up photo of a sloth's face, implying that the sloth perceives the normal walking speed as extremely fast and disorienting.
