The boy’s gone away with with his other boys for the weekend. Sure, I’ll miss him, but I’m looking forward to some “me time” for the next couple of days. I’ll get the bed to myself! Well, apart from the other sixteen sloths who’ll be sharing it…

What is the ideal habitat for a sloth?
In a study published last month in PLOS One by Mendes and colleagues, researchers examined the distribution of maned sloths in South America, and found that their habitat was restricted to the coastline of Brazil. 
This area is “between 0 and 2,349.86 m of altitude, with an annual temperature between 8.5 and 19.4°C, and an annual precipitation between 753.01 and 2,592.0 mm”. However, the amount of suitable habitat for the maned sloth may (worryingly) be lost in the coming years due to different factors such as deforestation.
Not only [should] conservation actions should be taken in the protected areas, but also they are dearly needed to restore and reconnect the surrounding habitats and other important ones where maned sloth is known.
If you would like to help in rainforest conservation and hence the maintenance of the maned sloth’s population, you can make a donation to the Amazon Conservation Association or the World Land Trust’s Atlantic Rainforest Project.

Nightmare on Sloth Street
Second Halloween party last night. 
Haven’t been to a Halloween party in a few years, and this time got invited to two! They went all out with the decorations and Jack-o-Lanterns last night too, so it was quite impressive. Bit like this sloth from London Zoo! I wore a bright green wig and went as an alien this time around. So Halloween is (finally) over for another year, so I’ll leave you with this Nightmare on Sloth Street print available on Etsy.
