Life in the Slow Lane with New Baby Sloth

There's a new youngster at the San Diego Zoo, and she is "slow" cute! Xena, the Zoo's Linnaeus's two-toed sloth ambassador, gave birth recently to an adorable little girl, and both are doing just fine. Wildlife care specialists report that the young sloth is doing well, instinctively clinging to her mother, nursing and gaining strength each day.

As wildlife ambassadors for their species, guests may see Xena and her baby during a wildlife presentation at the Rady Ambassador Presentation Area in Wildlife Explorers Basecamp or during an Exclusive VIP Experience—a special five-hour, upgraded Zoo tour. This very popular tour requires advance reservations (minimum 72 hours) and is subject to availability.
