Adopt a Sloth

Luiza

Luiza is a firm favourite here at Team Sloth – though the tracking team might disagree, since she’s a master at hide-and-seek and always chooses the tallest trees. This beautiful three-fingered sloth lives by the beach and has truly earned her ‘super mom’ title, raising four babies in just four years – all successfully!
