Dad's in the forest with all the monkeys!

Here is the Sloth Garden.  You can see the agouti and two of the sloths.  Stanley is wrapped up in the blue blanket!


Jeremy and Charlie, our 8-month old baby sloths

Poldo

Dad, all covered in monkeys!
Today we were put in the sloth garden again like yesterday. It's actually fun just watching the sloths and the other animals! Today Poldo, the grisson, kept climbing up the fence when the tour group was coming by! Tobin and I had to bring him out and walk him around because he was driving us crazy. Poldo will actually follow us like a puppy! We also watched the baby sloths and made sure they weren't eating too much dirt. Did you know that hibiscus flowers are like chocolate to the sloths? They love them so much and will even push each other over and fight to get to one! Also today when I was putting Stanley, the kinkajou, away he peed on me! It was gross and Stanley also has really sharp claws (he's the only animal who can open a brazil nut with its hand in the world!) so when I was playing with him and letting him climb all over my neck, he scratched me a lot (even though he didn't mean to hurt me!). It was Dad's first day today taking the monkeys to the forest! It's when all the monkeys jump on you and you carry them to their playing area in the forest and they play with you and play with each other while you watch them in the forest! When I saw Dad walking back he was covered with about 5 big monkeys! After work we came home and just ate rice and beans for dinner.  Tobin, Heiner and I also made a movie on the iPad of us dancing and falling and things like that. Once Heiner left our house we had to go to bed early because of course we have to get up early for work!
