My daughter came to visit last week and our adventures included feeding two sloths. So much fun and worth the price. They were so cute! A great memory made.
@ChippySuave How cool is that? What did you feed them? I don't know what sloths eat. Fruit?
Also I had to flip that last pic to see the sloth right side up! 😄
@nonayadambidnes We fed him them some berries, cucumbers, and some other green thing. LOL
The cool thing I learned was their baby teeth never get replaced and just continue to grow.. really long canines.
Their front claws were easily 4 inches long. They don't attack, but they will try to reach out for more food so we were advised to remove necklaces or dangly earrings.
@ChippySuave I guess I always assumed that their long claws were for digging under bark for insects or whatever. Like anteater claws. What a cool experience though to get up close to them like that!
@nonayadambidnes Funny you said that, sloths belong to the family tree that includes anteaters and armadillos.
