Baby Three-toed Sloth Scratching Its Face

Posted by Birdchick on February - 17 - 2010

I have no patience.  I had this idea that I would go through my Panama trip chronologically using my words, photos and even some edited HD video.  But I’m too excited about this baby sloth!

I blogged way too early about sloth in Panama.  I didn’t think my look at a sloth was going to get much better than the one I saw my first full day there, but sloth ended up being a daily occurrence.  So, here is a snippet of a sloth video that I’m working on.  It’s a female three-toed sloth with a baby crawling over her belly and trying to scratch its face that we got on one of our field trips with Canopy Tower.

Warning: may cause your head to implode with its utter cuteness. This may rival my Baby Porcupine Eating a Banana with Hiccups video:

If you’re wondering about the sound in the background–a cicada that sounds like a buzz saw.

    looks like you’re trying to start your own cute-overload site!

  2. It is ever so cute. I still prefer the porcupet but this babe is a close contender.

    This is so cute I may have to go back to the previous post for some cleansing turkey vulture. :D

    What a sweet, sweet face! It almost looks like it’s got a permanent smile.

    I immediately reverted to baby talk exclamations over the iddy biddy baby wumpums.
