Mother and child reunion: Baby sloth reunites with mom

Did you know sloths make sounds? Two-fingered sloth babies call their mothers with this adorable “meep” sound. Once they become adults, two-fingered sloths stop vocalizing and become mostly silent animals, unless they feel threatened, in which case they can hiss a little!

What do baby sloths sound like?

Have you ever heard a baby sloth cry? This baby is calling for its mother, who is high in the canopy of trees. Babies can fall from the tops of trees without being injured, and usually, their mothers will climb down to retrieve them. If it's not necessary, the best thing to do is wait for the mother and interfere as little as possible. And remember, although adorable, sloths do not make good pets! #Adoptasloth #cute #conservation | The Sloth Conservation Foundation
