Unfortunately, we set a new record this month by saving 100 animals. We have stated that in the last ten years, we have never received this many animals in a single month.

We are happy to announce that we were able to reunite this mother and baby 3-fingered sloths (Bradypus variegatus).

From the nursery to the forest, every sloth follows a unique journey before returning to the wild. Discover the different stages of rehabilitation and what it takes to give these slow-moving animals a second chance at life in their natural habitat.

The sloth became the 16 national symbol here in Costa Rica.
