Meet Charlie!

Charlie the three fingered sloth climbingMeet Charlie! He is a 3-fingered juvenile male sloth that was found by a few good samaritans tourists. He was sitting almost on the ground and had not moved from the position in 3 days when the tourists decided to call us.

After examining him it was revealed that Charlie was severely anemic, extremely weak and had a bad bacterial infection…no wonder he wasn’t able to move! With careful medication, proper diet and a little TLC Charlie is starting to make a recovery. It’s going to take a while for his anemia to completely resolve but he is doing so much better than when he first came in. We are very hopeful that he will make a complete recovery.

Send Charlie your well wishes on a speedy recovery in the comments below!
