Why Your Support matters
Together with our supporters, we recognize the deep connection between humans, wildlife, and the rainforest and the responsibility we share to protect it.
Although rainforests cover less than 2% of the Earth’s surface, they are home to more than 50% of the world’s plant and animal species. As human activity continues to expand, sloths face increasing threats, including electrocution from power lines, infant abandonment, disease, dog attacks, vehicle collisions, and the illegal wildlife trade. Most of these dangers are directly linked to human impact, making rescue, rehabilitation, and release more critical than ever.
By supporting The Sloth Institute (TSI), you directly fund vital rescue efforts as well as our research, education, and community outreach programs. These initiatives are designed to reduce harm, promote coexistence, and create lasting change for both wildlife and the people who share their environment.
With your support, we can protect sloths, restore their habitats, and build a more sustainable future, together.

SLOTH INTERNSHIPS
An internship at The Sloth Institute is a structured learning experience designed to help you gain fieldwork skills and hands-on conservation experience.
Interns support vital programs, from sloth husbandry to wildlife tracking, while learning research methods and professional practices relevant to careers in ecology, animal care, and conservation science. Unlike general volunteer positions, internships have defined learning goals, responsibilities, and timeframes that help interns develop practical expertise.
