PHOTO FRIDAY: MOM AND BABY SLOTH


If ever you wanted to see a sloth, get yourself to Cahuita, Costa Rica. The slow-moving creatures are everywhere, as you'll see from our blog posts over the next couple of days.

We get you started with the photo above of a young three-toed sloth sleeping comfortably in his mother's arms. The two adorable little animals hung out for hours in a tree just outside our hotel door. 

The day before we asked Jenny, the irreverent, longtime owner of Cabinas Jenny, if she had seen any sloths around. She replied, "Well, since they tried to move into my kitchen last year--and I kicked them out--I haven't seen quite so many. But I'm sure you'll see one in the trees around here if you look around." 

Just another day with the sloths in Cahuita.
