Brown-throated Sloth with baby, Uraba, Colombia Not happy with the white skies, but we were delighted to see this sloth mother and her baby. Although they occur all over Colombia, it's still the first time we've seen one in Colombia in two years time.

    A beautiful sight to see in the wild! As a side note, that tree has some serious pest damage. Posted 7 years ago
