"I'm happiest when I'm just walking around town and happen upon a flower starting to bloom. Stunning!"

— Leif, Animal Crossing: New Leaf

Leif is a sloth in the Animal Crossing series introduced in Animal Crossing: New Leaf. In his main appearances, he runs gardening shops and offers weeding services to the player.

Appearances[edit]

Animal Crossing: New Leaf[edit]

In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Leif runs the Garden Center, where the player can buy flowers, saplings, fertilizer, and gardening tools such as the watering can and the axe. As a nod to his ownership of the store, Leif's name is a pun on the word "leaf." After Timmy and Tommy's store expands to T.I.Y., the Garden Center will merge, Leif will have a new, larger selection of items, and additionally will offer a weed-pulling service.

Depending on the version of the game, on a certain day, Leif hosts Weeding Day. When all the weeds are pulled, Leif rewards the player with a prize which consists of one of the furniture items from the Flower set. If the day starts and there are no weeds in town, Leif rewards the player with a special award: the Happy Generosity Award. In addition, he makes three public works projects - the round, square, and tulip topiaries - available for erection and gifts the player with a flower bag containing a hybrid flower.

Leif may be found in the player's town if more than 50 weeds are present, fast asleep, and if spoken to, he wakes up and asks the player to help pull the weeds. He will maintain a count of the remaining weeds so that the player knows how many still need to be uprooted; he may gift the player with a random flower bag as a reward for completing the task.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons[edit]

In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Leif regularly appears in front of the Resident Services building to sell an assortment of gardening goods, such as shrubs and flowers. He also buys weeds for twice their usual selling price. He will leave the island at 10 PM. Also, he always appears on the player's island on the first day of Nature Day.

	#632 Leif
	NTSC-U: Although he's a sloth, there's nothing lazy about Leif. He works hard to sell seeds, saplings, and gardening supplies, all while fighting the temptation to dangle from his plants. I wonder if Leif knows how much all his hard work brightens the days of those around him... PAL: Sloth he may be, but he's not one to just lounge around! He sells seeds, saplings and other gardening supplies - all with a big smile. He doesn't even give in to the urge to hang from the plants he sells. Flowers really cheer him up, but his smile cheers everyone else up a whole lot more!
