Pedro's Biography

Born in San José Costa Rica, Pedro grew up surrounded by a loving family and an animal loving grandma. He spent many of his afternoons watching nature documentaries which inspired him to study biology.

He Graduated from Universidad Latina de Costa Rica with a Bachelor’s degree in Biology and a Masters degree in Sustainable Development from the University of International Cooperation.

Why I love sloths

I love that they mind their own business in the rainforest.  They just want to eat some leaves, scratch their butts and relax in the sunshine.  The definition of Pura Vida.
