The zoo said that mama Lightning and her baby are both doing well.
After roughly a week of 24-hour birth watch, Lightning, a Linnaeus’s two-toed sloth, gave birth to a pup on June 7.
We are thrilled to announce that Lightning the sloth had her baby!! So far baby and Mom seem to be doing well. They will remain behind the scenes to bond but we will share updates as we have them! pic.twitter.com/gLmzKO92ctThe birth of the new pup comes after 10-year-old Lightning gave birth to a stillborn pup in 2021.
As the baby continues to grow, it will start sampling solid food at about 10 days old and will continue to nurse for about a month, the zoo said. After that, the pup will cling to Lightning’s belly and eat whatever she eats.
