 * Support as nominator --Tomer T (talk) 19:31, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose - The foliage gets in the way of the sloth. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:30, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Support - The presence of the foliage, part of the creatures habitat, does not obscure the form of the creature which is quite plainly seen between the leaves. Amandajm (talk) 11:04, 14 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Weak support-- Foliage is my concern too. Herald  talk with me 12:08, 15 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Support - Foliage obscures a few percent of the sloth's image - less than the branch does. And obviously, it only covers up more fur similar to what is visible. That should hardly be a concern. In fact, the foliage serves to emphasize the image is from a natural environment, a point in its favor. WolfmanSF (talk) 18:26, 17 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose Sorry, leaves are too distracting. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 04:45, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Support — I think it's OK — I don't think foliage is a significant problem, any more than a chair would be in a pic. of a human (although I guess it could be cropped a little bit on the bottom). Sca (talk) 15:06, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Weak Support per Herald and Amandajm. I don't mind a bit of foliage, but it confuses the composition a bit, so only weak. Adam Cuerden (talk) 16:39, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
