They moved so slowly I could loose patience and go do something else before they would move enough to prove they were alive.Ted Millernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7283005317456814429.post-71924471425327515152013-07-21T19:31:02.511-04:002013-07-21T19:31:02.511-04:00Fabulous photos!

The little sloth with the white foot will not be released, since apparently in the sloth world, having a flaw like that makes you very vulnerable. <br /><br />Sorry for any confusion - and thanks for reading our blog! I'm so happy to know that our readers haven't given up on us! <br />Kimberly Kaufmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03111614059575304808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7283005317456814429.post-51638145140866470662013-07-19T10:10:17.238-04:002013-07-19T10:10:17.238-04:00Thanks so much, Carole!
