We have launched the “ Save an Acre” campaign to help us in this mission. Read more about how we are fighting to save sloth habitats and see how you can help One of our biggest goals is to protect and shield the remaining sloth habitat in the South Caribbean region from development through strategic land purchases. This includes reforestation (with tree species favored by sloths), the creation of biological corridors and protected forest reserves.

We are working hard to help sloths in disturbed areas by restoring and protecting critical sloth habitats. We are already seeing the negative impacts of habitat loss in Costa Rica, with sloth numbers falling in the wild and genetic abnormalities spreading throughout populations.

As humans encroach further and further into the rainforest, more trees are cut down and the forest is fragmented which leaves the sloths very vulnerable. Sloths rely on a continuous rainforest canopy for survival as they are physically unable to traverse big gaps between trees. Kicking things off with the number 1 threat to wild sloth populations in Costa Rica – habitat loss. We have developed a range of community-based programs that help us to achieve this mission. In all cases, the best approach is through the development of long-term conservation solutions that provide sustainable ways for sloths to coexist with the people sharing their habitat. Additional examples can be found on the microblogging site Tumblr under the tag '#rape sloth.Here we detail the 7 biggest threats to wild sloth populations and explain what we are doing to help.
