Video: Sloth born at Amersfoort Zoo

Amersfoort Zoo has a new resident. A baby sloth was welcomed this week. Zookeepers spotted the baby on mother Amaka's belly, the zoo announced on Thursday. Even though baby sloths are only very rarely born in zoos, this is the sixth baby Amersfoort welcomed from the same set of parents. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQ1c1J0rr50&feature=youtu.be
