Imagine navigating your home blindfolded, with no roads, no safe paths, and danger lurking at every turn. That's what it's like for sloths in a fragmented rainforest.
Watch your donation build Speedways.
Every $5 funds 1 meter of safe crossing, and every 30 meters completes a full Speedway. Drag the slider and keep going, big gifts can fund more than one.
As trees disappear, sloths lose their natural highways through the canopy, the connections that once gave them safe access to food, shelter, and rest. Cut off from those routes, they’re forced to the ground where predators wait, or onto roads and power lines where the outcome is often fatal.
Displaced sloths also face malnutrition, chronic stress, and greater exposure to illness. Without secure forest pathways, the long-term survival of wild sloth populations is at serious risk.
That’s why we created Sloth Speedways: specially placed rope bridges that reconnect fragmented rainforest canopy. They let sloths travel between trees safely, without ever touching the ground or coming near a road or power line.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Speedways solve one danger. Sloths and monkeys still face the risk of electrocution on nearby power lines, which is why this program works hand in hand with our #ENDELECTROCUTIONS campaign to guide animals away from wires entirely.
