A cute sloth has moved into the Brooklyn Children’s Museum
Meet Roger.
He turns his head languidly like a slow-motion GIF come to life. His soulful brown eyes are dreamy. Who is this lovable low-energy creature?
Meet Roger the Sloth.
Roger is in residence at the Brooklyn Children’s Museum. He’s the star of an exhibit of live animals called “Survival of the Slowest” that the Crown Heights cultural venue is presenting in partnership with an organization called Little Ray’s Nature Centres.
The sloth’s temporary home at the museum is a glassed-in landscaped habitat with a tiny hammock holding a fluffy blanket for cushioned naps. And it’s a good thing he has a comfy place to sleep; that’s what he does for up to 19 hours per day.
