Sloth sanctuaries provide special chances to view and save these amazing animals; they are havens of conservation and education. From the varied ecosystems of Australia to the rich rainforests of Costa Rica, these reserves are absolutely vital in maintaining sloth numbers and their habitats. Every place gives guests an opportunity to study sloth behaviour, ecology, and the difficulties these animals experience in the wild.
1. The Sloth Sanctuary of Costa Rica: Pioneering Conservation
Tucked down on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica, the Sloth Sanctuary of Costa Rica offers promise for sloth preservation. Established in 1992, it was the first sloth refuge in the world and has since inspired others all around. Judy Avey-Arroyo and her late husband, Luis Arroyo, came upon an orphaned baby sloth and started the refuge as a modest family-run business.
