Happy Birthday to Carlton our Two-toed Sloth, who turned 30 yesterday! 🎂 Celebrate longer lives for Sloths this #ThreatenedSpeciesDay. They face habitat loss, and in some cases such as the Three-toed Sloth, the threat of extinction. A post shared by Moody Gardens (@moodygardens) on Sep 7, 2017 at 12:17pm PDT

I was fortunate to get up close and personal with Moody Gardens’ 30-year-old two-toed sloth, Carlton. Photos captured on Canon 7D.
