For the last year we have been collaborating with Discovery/Animal Planet on a major eight-part series about our work here at the Sloth Sanctuary of Costa Rica.

'Meet the Sloths' is our very own sloth-series starring Buttercup, Randy and a host of orphaned juniors personalities like Tigger, the hyperactive baby sloth, and gorgeous abandoned baby Bradypus named Pi.

Filmed over the better part of the year, the series features some of our ground-breaking scientific research - discover how sloths swim and watch us bust some myths when it comes to sloth speed and digestion.

There's also plenty of drama with new orphan arrivals, sloth love triangles and some emotional releases of healthy sloths back into the wild.

Watch the trailer for the series:
