There is concern about the decline of the two-toed sloth population (Choloepus hoffmanni) in recent years. Because of the challenges these cute animals face in their native environments, the Jaguar Rescue Center has taken action to understand how they reproduce. Our goal is to learn more about sloths' reproductive biology so we may start breeding them successfully in captivity. This study was done with permits from the Ministry of Energy and Environment (MINAE) and the National Commission fo...

The JRC recently entered agreements with the Corredor Biológico de Talamanca Caribe, Ara Manzanillo Project, and Turtle Rescue Center. These collaborations focus on environmental initiatives, including the protection of wildlife and biodiversity. The Corredor Biológico, with 17 members, aims to safeguard the Biological Corridor. The Ara Manzanillo Project pioneers the reintroduction of the Great Green Macaw. Turtle Rescue Center in Cahuíta ensures sea turtle survival through community protection...

We can find the Spider Monkey in the treetops of Central and South America rainforests. It is distinguished by unmatched dexterity and social complexity. We will solve the riddles that make spider monkeys among the most fascinating species in the canopy as we investigate the enigmatic world of these arboreal acrobats.

The monkeys live in the center of Costa Rica's lush woods, where time passes slowly. However, climate change poses an unparalleled threat to the peaceful life of these slow-moving species. We explore the complex interactions between changing precipitation patterns, warming temperatures, and other climate-related changes and monkey populations in Costa Rica.

Among the branches of lush tropical landscapes, where time appears to slow down, lives a fascinating animal that has come to represent peace: the sloth. With the increasing attraction of witnessing these fascinating creatures in their environment, the idea of eco-friendly travel and responsible sloth viewing becomes essential. We explore the world of these slow-moving marvels and the fine line that separates ecological protection from human curiosity.

Declines in wildlife species and individual populations in recent years have caused alarm and highlighted the urgent need for innovative conservation strategies. In this context, wildlife rescue centers are critical nodes in the fight to protect biodiversity. In November, we published a study introducing the Speaker Method, a novel release technique for rescuing and reuniting mammal offspring with their mothers in their natural habitat. Traditional methods often involve keeping animals in captiv...

We are the first organization in Costa Rica to receive this distinction, reflecting our commitment to conservation and sustainability.

The sloth is the star of a fantastic ecological dance that takes place high up in the tree canopy of the lush rainforests of Central and South America. Beyond their methodical and leisurely motions, these animals have intriguing connections with moths and algae that highlight the complex interactions found in nature.

Sloths, with their languid movements and seemingly perpetual states of relaxation, are among the most mysterious creatures in the animal kingdom. Although their slow-paced lives are well documented, their reproduction remains a subject of curiosity. In this article, we'll dig deeper into what we know about sloth reproduction and unravel some of the mysteries surrounding these fascinating animals.

When we think of animals in motion, our minds often go to the nimble, nimble creatures of the animal world – cheetahs, migratory birds, or dolphins soaring through the ocean. However, there is one group of animals that challenges this notion: sloths. These slow-moving tree-dwelling creatures are famous for their leisurely pace. But have you ever wondered how far a sloth can travel in a day? In this article, we will embark on a journey through the fascinating world of sloths to discover surprisi...
