Newborn Two-Toed Sloth Arrives at Rhode Island Zoo

A Rhode Island zoo is celebrating a major victory in its mission to safeguard endangered species, as a Linne’s two-toed sloth was recently welcomed into the world. The Roger Williams Park Zoo proudly announced the joyful news, sharing that the sloth, born to parents Fiona and Westley, is a promising addition to conservation efforts.

Currently nameless, the adorable newborn is finding comfort in its mother’s embrace. The zoo’s devoted team of zookeepers and veterinarians is closely monitoring the pair, ensuring their health and fostering their precious bond behind the scenes.
