This cute little critter is a baby sloth who temporarily lives at the Panamerican Conservation Association wildlife rescue center. www.panamericancon.org. We believe the mother of the sloth abandoned the baby. Actually, it is not uncommon for first time sloth mother's who are still in the process of learning how properly care for their infants, to abandon them. A concerned individual found the sloth lying on the ground in the forest and brought her to the center. The rehabilitation specialists are teaching her to be a wild sloth so that she can return to the wild when she is a little older and can survive on her own. In this video, she is learning to climb trees. www.panamericancon.org www.neotropics.org

Aviarios del Caribe ~ Sloth Rescue Center in Limon, Costa Rica The sloth in this video was orphaned, and is now cared for by the good people at Aviarios del Caribe. For more information, visit http://www.ogphoto.com/slothrescuecenter/main.htm. This footage was taken while on a country-wide excursion through costa rica. Regretfully, this is not my pet sloth and I have no involvement in its upbringing. I'm sure the experienced and knowledgeable staff at A.D.C. will release it back into the wild when it is old and healthy enough to be able to survive on its own.
