Arenal area is well known for its diverse wildlife, including the two different sloth species; the two-toed sloths and three-toed sloths. Black eye patches and “smiling” mouths distinguish Costa Rica’s docile three-toed sloths, while the larger two-toed variety have white-ringed faces, brown snouts and shaggy coats. Sloths are especially unique in that they spend nearly their entire lives hanging upside down in a tree; they sleep, eat, mate and even give birth upside down! With your certified naturalist guide, an expert at locating wildlife and extremely knowledgeable in their field you will go on a search for these beautiful animals around La Fortuna's beautiful Sloth spotting areas, you will also have a chance encounter of toucans, red blue jeans poison dart frogs, hummingbirds, iguanas and monkeys.
