Why I love sloths
I’ve loved sloths for as long as I can remember, so spending my days sloth spotting truly feels like a dream come true. These beautiful animals seek peaceful lives, content to keep to themselves, and I’m incredibly grateful to play even a small part in helping them preserve that tranquility here at The Sloth Institute. They simply want to snooze, munch on leaves, and take things slow – honestly, what more could anyone want in life?
