Adopt-A-SlothConservationSloth Diaries
This weekend we had a close encounter with everyone’s favorite one-eyed sloth wizard…Merlin!
Merlin is one of our favorite success stories. He was found with an incredibly terrible fungal infection a few years ago. After 8 months of treatment, he was released with a tracking collar. Now a year and a half after his release we were able to grab him for another health check and to change his collar because the battery was running out.
Not only was Merlin looking fabulous but he had also put on half a kilogram of weight! Quite a feat at this time of year and with being an older handicapped sloth.
After his quick exam and collar change, we released him back exactly where we found him.
Good luck Merlin, until next time!
