Spectacular footage from @puertoviejotours_cr of this three-fingered sloth drinking from the river!! 🤩🤩🤩 This really is magical footage! Not only is it very hard to capture a video of a sloth drinking in the wild, but it is even harder to capture a baby sloth feeding!! 😍 Did you know? Sloth mothers don’t store large amounts of milk like most other mammals – carrying a heavy supply of milk around is expensive in terms of energy! | The Sloth Conservation Foundation
