Episode Details

Sloth World in Orlando may be shut down, but no one’s getting arrested—57 sloths died under mysterious circumstances tied to a never-opened attraction. Investigators found no intentional harm, but instead a deadly mix of stress, poor conditions, and lack of basic care in a warehouse with no running water or power. These animals, captured from South America and shipped halfway across the globe, were ill-equipped for survival in unfamiliar surroundings. The surviving sloths are now in a zoo, and new state rules require permits for importing sloths—highlighting how fragile exotic animal care can be.
