The Two-Toed Sloth population isn't currently endangered, but populations are threatened - sloths face increasing threats from urban expansion, power lines, and road crossings.

Cameron Park Zoo supports the Sloth Conservation Foundation (SloCo), an organization that works to install canopy bridges, conduct vital research, and educate communities on safe coexistence.

How can you help? Advocate for wildlife corridors and support responsible forest management!

It's that time of year again 🎃🍭🍫

Candy, like many products found at your local grocery store, is often made using palm oil. Palm oil plantations clear valuable forest habitat for animals like gibbons, orangutans, and tigers. The Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) provides certification to companies that are committed to using sustainable palm oil.

It might seem a bit overwhelming to try to determine if a product is made using sustainable palm oil, but Cheyenne Mountain Zoo has an app to make it much easier!

Thank you to SAFE: Gibbon for sharing!
