Tango – the mom of the newborn refused to stay at its side and didn’t care for it. She demonstrated no affection.

Thankfully, the animal employees of the zoo decided to care about the newborn themselves. They took the sloth and bottle-feed the baby with goat milk every 3 hours. These people even gave the baby stuffed toys to feel comfortable and defended.

In case you don’t know, these creatures are the slowest species in the world of animals. They inhabit Central America.

Sloths spend most of their time hanging down the trees. They sleep from 15-20 hours a day and when they wake up at night, they eat and then sleep again.
