Sloths


 Last night on Animal Planet the show was "Too Cute! Baby Sloths". It was filmed at the  Aviaros del Caribe Sloth Sanctuary in Cahuita Costa Rica.
 It really was too cute and got me wanting to be back in Costa Rica watching the sloths. When we were there in 2006 we got to see many 3 toed sloths. One afternoon in Manuel Antonio National Park we got to watch a sloth make its way down a tree to go to the bathroom. Sloths only go to the bathroom once a week so its a big event for them. They are also extremely slow moving, the whole process took about an hour. It was amazing to be that close and watch.

Here are the pictures of the big event for Mr. Sloth



Another day we got to watch one switch from one tree to another.



Some of my other favorite Sloth pictures
