How you can Help

Don't be slower than a sloth to take action

Adopt a sloth with the World Wildlife Fund

Sign petitions and advocate for policy change, including protecting the sloth under the Endangered Species Act

Do not support zoos that wrongfully import sloths

Do not engage in the illegal trade of animals.  Use social media as a platform to speak out against animal poaching

Always practice respectful, eco-friendly tourism, but especially if visiting Panama

Eat sustainably-sourced seafood - do your research and look for labels and certifications, such as the one pictured to the right

Limit your greenhouse gas emissions by:

Lowering beef consumption - try plant-based protein alternatives

Avoid fast fashion - buy clothes that will last you in the long term

Drive as little as possible - walk, bike, or take public transportation
