I am SO glad to know that re-introduction is possible. I volunteered for several wks at a different sloth sanctuary in CR where staff said it was impossible to do releases of any sloths who were 1 yr or less on arrival. I did not believe this but was not in a position to argue with Mgmt. I did, however, advocate for large, outdoor, treed enclosures, if not for release training, at least for quality of life. I knew from my 3 yrs of experience with chimpanzees in an African sanctuary that if chimps could enjoy a part of the forest and be contained, so could sloths! I believe they have since created an outdoor area but am not sure. Thank you – and keep up your awesome work!
