Day 1: Guanacaste’s Sloth & Animal Sanctuary Park

Guanacaste’s Sloth & Animal Sanctuary Park If you want to visit sloths in Costa Rica, this is your perfect opportunity. The open habitat Animal Sanctuary is home to three beautiful, slow-moving, two-toed sloths. All of them have been rescued by the Wildlife Ministry of Costa Rica and put in our care. Two-toed sloths are native to the Guanacaste area but these three were rescued outside of the province. During your visit you will get a close view of Sloths which are very delicate creatures due to their slow metabolism, so nursing them back to health is a challenge in itself.

There are daily feedings at 9:30 am, 12:30 pm and 3:30 pm in which the resident caretaker will educate visitors about these fascinating creatures. Due to more media awareness, many people are becoming fascinated with sloths and even an International Sloth Day has been created in order to raise awareness about the sloth life cycle and natural habitat as well as, educate people about this loveable and vulnerable tropical animal.

The trip was terrific with great planning on your part. Most of the adventures were not mainstream and somewhat off the beaten path which made it especially enjoyable!! We felt taken care of and you all were readily available to respond to questions and issues. I would highly recommend your company and friends have already expressed interest based on our pictures and excitement.
