Costa Rica - Day 3 - INBioparque

This was the second of the two sloths that we stumbled across at INBioparque, a non-profit research center just outside San Jose, Costa Rica, which conducts research on the local plant and animal life, studying its biodiversity and discovering new ways to protect it, as well as utilize the data for the improvement of human life, resulting in new drugs, cosmetics and other products. What was so cool about this preserve was that it was filled with animal life in a natural habitat, rather than in a zoo where everything is behind a cage. In this case, we walked along the path and just stumbled upon this sloth, climbing up a tree about 10 feet away. Wow. As you could imagine, Nazzy really got her geek on, as the guides were asking her questions, when it came to the insects and plant life. I also have a lot of pictures that I will share later when I have a chance.
