Probably to rake leaves into its mouth. I'm sure they came in handy as a defensive weapon as well.

Yeah I guess you're right. Or they could be used for courting and the like. Because why else to deer and moose have antlers except to hit each other with them?

Oh! I didn't know sloths had big claws. I must not have been paying enough attention during the Ice Age movie.
