The Sloth Sanctuary is the only research center of sloths in the world, which rescues and rehabilitates injured sloths and cares for those who have been separated from their mothers. Its main purpose is to educate the public about them. Here visitors can see sloths up close and take pictures with then.
This guided tour introduces you to Costa Rican sloths – what they eat, how they live, what makes them unique.
The two kinds of sloths at the Sanctuary are Bradypus variegatus (Three-fingered sloth) and Choloepus hoffmanni (Two-fingered sloth).
You can also take an optional, self-guided walk through the two well-maintained jungle trails.
