Researcher raises abandoned baby sloths

Natural scientist Sam Trull supports orphaned sloth cubs. She wants to help the animals and also provide more information.

Manuel Antonio – The natural scientist Sam Trull actually wanted to travel to Costa Rica to get an impression of the life of the monkeys on site. But then she became aware of a completely different animal: the sloth.

She was so fascinated by the sloths that she really wanted to find out more about the often sluggish animals *. Sloths are native to the canopy of the tropical rainforests of Central America.

Sanctuary for orphaned sloth babies

Her love for sloths finally led the researcher to settle in Costa Rica *. But the proximity to the animals alone was not enough. Soon, Sam Trull realized that the sloths needed her help. You needed a mother.

Many baby sloths have to struggle to survive on their own shortly after birth because their parents abandon them. The researcher founded a rescue station for these young animals. The young do not know what to eat or how to treat other sloths. In addition, sloths are very cuddly and need intensive body contact, reports “mentaldfloss.com”.
