I know I saw some TV show about sloths last week.

52:57 Video duration: 52:57 Aired: 11/05/14 Expires: 11/04/19 Rating: NR Video has closed captioning.

In 2000 in the jungles of Panama, a young journalist, named Ana, has a chance encounter with a tiny orphaned sloth, which she names Velcro. For nearly two years, the pair is inseparable until finally Ana travels up a remote river to reintroduce Velcro back to the wild. This is the story Ana’s return to Central and South America to see how much has changed since Velcro came into her life.
