About

Participants under 18 years of age must be accompanied by paying adults

The sloth meet and greet lasts 20-30 minutes. Depending on the sloth’s participation level, you will be able to offer him food, take photos next to him, and even touch his fur! Due to the nature of this animal you will not be able to hold him and this meet and greet is subject to slothfulness (a.k.a sleeping).

Please Note In compliance with best practices for animal welfare — and the quarantine protocols outlined by federal regulations and the Association of Zoo and Aquarium accreditation standards — service animals are not permitted in Meet and Greets or behind-the-scenes animal areas.
