Meet Ruth The Tiny Baby Sloth Published on Sunday, October 17, 2010 by administrator EmailShare 2EmailShare The Rosamond Gifford Zoo has an exceptionally sleepy and exceptionally adorable new addition – a 6-week-old baby Hoffman’s Two-toed Sloth.

Sloths are identified by the number of long, prominent claws that they have on each front foot. News:
