“The Real Sloths of Costa Rica” is my new reality TV show….
Tucking into a tasty carrot snack, this bright-eyed baby sloth is making a happy recovery after being orphaned just days into its young life.
The adorable creature is just one of 100 being cared for by volunteers at the Aviarios Sloth Sanctuary in Costa Rica, Central America.
Some are barely the size of a human hand and wouldn’t have stood a chance if left alone in the wild.
But they have been given a new lease of life thanks to the centre which was set up by married couple Luis Arroyo and Judy Avey-Arroyo after an orphaned sloth was brought to their door by neighbours 18 years ago.
Lots of adorable photos with the article.
