A baby sloth was found alone crying on the beach. Thankfully, staff from Jaguar Rescue Center in Puerto Viejo de Talamanca, Costa Rica, spotted the little one and took it in. First, a trip to the vet to make sure it was healthy, and then a plan to reunite it with its mama…
They found the mama who had already started to climb back up the tree and played a recording of her baby’s cries to lure her down. The baby sloth was then handed over to her in a moment that’s just beyond precious. There’s nothing like that mother/child bond even out in the animal kingdom! 🙂
