Did you think sloths were quiet? The people at the Sloth Sanctuary could tell you more. But we do have here a baby sloth sounding off as he learns to navigate his monkey bars. (Well, that’s what we called ’em on our playground…)

Sloth Gets a Bath–Beware!
(OK, I jazzed up the headline a little bit. Couldn’t help it!)
I wonder how many of us will be called upon, any time in life, to give a sloth a bath. I’m trying to gauge the sloth’s opinion of the bath. Is she going to bite the nice lady, or is she just expressing a general sense of freaking out?
I’m guessing she enjoys the ointment and the combing, though.
P.S.–My sister had to give my iguana a bath once. She never forgot how well-behaved he was.
Video Treat: Baby Sloths
Sorry, but I’m partial to baby sloths and my wife’s crazy about them, so here they are–a couple of them learning how to climb, honing their skills at the sloth sanctuary.
Listen to the vocalizations made by these little guys. They sound almost human. They don’t wind up going off to collidge, either.
