I've watched all the sloth videos I can find dozens of times and it's so sad and cute to watch the little guy reaching out so desperately for his stuffed toy!

As cute as this is, I'm really disappointed that this is from the Costa Rica sloth sanctuary. It's basically the Sloth version of Tiger King as numerous whistleblowers have been reporting that they've been mistreating the Sloths. First off despite being billed as a sanctuary, they don't release any of them, even those that are in healthy condition. They've even been known to take in perfectly healthy sloths that happen to be in inconvenient situations (trying to cross roads and such) and then just keeping them in captivity instead of just moving them somewhere safer. Second off, the Sloths are kept in bad conditions, keeping them in small, dark, dirty cages and feeding them vegetables instead of the leaves they eat in the wild, largely out of a misplaced idea of infantilizing them which instead causes them malnutrition and dental problems because their digestive systems and teeth do not respond well to food other than leaves. Some vets have reported deaths specifically because of this diet. Many of these cages are also far too close to one another. Sloths are solitary animals and despite their appearances they can get aggressive if too stressed by prolonged contact with one another, attacking one another with their claws. And if they're not fighting they're having sex, which leads to the third problem, the sanctuary essentially breed new sloths in captivity, mixing sloths of opposite sexes. Most likely this Jimimia is one of these captive infants. They play these incidents off as "happy accidents" despite the fact that they're essentially breeding them because they know that baby sloths are gold for social media. Worse, many of these babies are being raised in terribly unsafe conditions. Jimimia contracted mange in a sanctuary, which speaks to unsanitary conditions, she's clinging to a stuffed animal instead of to her mother because captive sloth mothers often become so stressed that they attack their own children. Most young captive sloths also develop jaw deformities because they nurse from their mother and instead attempt to suckle on stuffed animals instead. This is all incredibly abusive behavior and the only reason that they get away with it is because they operate in Costa Rica, who essentially let them get away with much of anything, even while they're killing an endangered species through neglect. If you want more information, you can look into the Dodo's article on the situation, though I warn you that there are some tragic images of their mistreatment. I urge you not to give a cent to this so-called sanctuary and not fall for their cutesy act, they're just using cute sloths to line their own pockets.

The way the little sloth was holding on to that stuffed animal made my heart melt
To the sloth its just holding on for dear life not a because it knows it's a toy and wants to look cute for you.
That person didn’t say the sloth wanted to look cute for anybody wtf are you on? You’re that miserable? The sloth is just adorable get over it
so is your heart okay? how does it feel when it melted? how are you even alive?
In fairness, holding on to things is kinda the main thing that sloths do, so...
Because the horrible lady was rough with her, the teddy was her only comfort.
So cute especially when it's hugging the soft toy
It is so adorable

I know ppl are gonna say she was being rough but she was trying to do it fast and efficiently so the sloth wouldn't be stressed for as long.

Some vets have reported deaths specifically because of this diet. Many of these cages are also far too close to one another. Sloths are solitary animals and despite their appearances they can get aggressive if too stressed by prolonged contact with one another, attacking one another with their claws.
And if they're not fighting they're having sex, which leads to the third problem, the sanctuary essentially breed new sloths in captivity, mixing sloths of opposite sexes. Most likely this Jimimia is one of these captive infants. They play these incidents off as "happy accidents" despite the fact that they're essentially breeding them because they know that baby sloths are gold for social media. Worse, many of these babies are being raised in terribly unsafe conditions. Jimimia contracted mange in a sanctuary, which speaks to unsanitary conditions, she's clinging to a stuffed animal instead of to her mother because captive sloth mothers often become so stressed that they attack their own children. Most young captive sloths also develop jaw deformities because they nurse from their mother and instead attempt to suckle on stuffed animals instead.
This is all incredibly abusive behavior and the only reason that they get away with it is because they operate in Costa Rica, who essentially let them get away with much of anything, even while they're killing an endangered species through neglect.
