#worldslothday

It’s #WorldSlothDay! And I’m very serious about #sloths! Babies are taken from their mothers, held captive and mishandled. They often don’t survive longer than six months when forcibly passed from one stranger to the next ☹ And what’s it all for? A selfie. If you haven’t already, sign up to @worldanimalprotectionus’s Wildlife Selfie Code and commit to cruelty-free selfies. And if you can spare it, a donation of whatever you can give could help put a stop to cruelty faced by wild animals used as props for selfies. You can donate here: https://goo.gl/GcW9nv Inspire change and help spread awareness for #WildlifeFriendly Travel. If the demand stops, so will the sloths’ suffering. #NotEntertainers

@Regranned from @world_animal_protection - After being brutally snatched from his home in trees, this sloth was sold to people who will likely use him as a photo prop. All he wanted was to live in his natural habitat. But instead he was cruelly captured, shoved into a bag, then forced to spend the rest of his life entertaining people. This #InternationalSlothDay, you can help vulnerable sloths suffering for profit.
