Sloth Conservation

Without a doubt! His name is Bojangles. I have tracked and followed the movements of this tough little sloth ever since he was born. I fitted him with a miniature baby-sloth sized tracking backpack 8 years ago and I have since watched him grow up to become the fiercest sloth in the rainforest. He once grabbed hold of my finger and didn't let go until he had caused permanent nerve damage. It's a love / hate relationship between me and him (of course I love him, but to him I am just the annoying scientist that follows him around). I am about to have his face tattooed on my arm! He is actually available for adoption through our website., and his full story is included in the adoption packet!
