Man Reunites Baby Sloth with Mom and She Says 'Thank You' in the Sweetest Way Possible
Man Reunites Baby Sloth with Mom and She Says 'Thank You' in the Sweetest Way Possible originally appeared on PetHelpful. We all love a story with a happy ending, especially when it comes to animals that need help. Baby sloths occasionally fall out of trees, and without human intervention, they often are never reunited with their moms. But that's not the case for this sloth and her baby. Wildlife Rescuers shared the video of the rescue, and it'll make you smile. It's always heartwarming to see someone reunite a baby sloth with their mother, but this video was a bit different because the mother actually says thank you to the rescuer after she gets her baby back. Mom hugs her baby, happy to have them back, but what she does next is the sweetest thank you you'll ever see! And if you've never heard a baby sloth before, make sure your sound is on! It probably won't be surprising to hear that Wildlife Rescuers' video of the sloth thanking her rescuer immediately went viral and has more than 10 million views and over 5 thousand comments. People loved the sweet exchange between the grateful mother and the rescuer! Commenter @ItzKat pointed out, "That's probably the fastest she's ever moved," while @gusncharly joked, "Mom's thinking you just saved her a 3-hour trip down to the base of the tree to pick up the little guy! LOL!" @Dena swooned, "How appreciative she was to the rescuer." @Durton said what we were all thinking, "I don't think I could ever let go! What an amazing experience!"Did you know that, unlike some other baby animals, baby sloths are born weighing only 10 ounces, but they are born with sharp claws and a full set of teeth? Not only that, but they can climb as soon as they're born. While they are supposed to cling to their mother's fur for the first six months, just like toddlers, they enjoy exploring their new world. This may explain why so many of them get separated from their mom because if they let go, they fall. Baby sloths may explore, but they can't run away from mom since they only move at a whopping 15 feet per minute. Imagine how long it would take for Mom to climb down to retrieve her baby or try to get across a busy road. Here's a fun sloth fact: Some sloths live their entire lives in the same tree. Since they can live for up to 40 years, I imagine it must get incredibly boring to never leave the tree!

Girl, 9, catches pet bug by keeping 122 ‘cute' tarantulas in her two-bed house
A GIRL of nine has caught the pet bug by keeping 122 tarantulas in her two-bed house. Isla Wheatley, who got her first spider at six, said: 'They're just too cute to resist. I want people to know spiders aren't harmful.' 5 5 Mum Megan, 33, of Rotherham, South Yorks, said: "I don't have the heart to tell her to stop. A lot of people say, 'how do you do it?' "But I see how much passion she has for it. Why would I stop that? "She sees something we don't. It's amazing how she speaks to them. "Yes, I'm terrified of them escaping. We had a Huntsman spider jump out of its enclosure last month and I had a panic attack. "But Isla's enjoyment and happiness trumps my fear. "When you see children that happy, how could you not support it?" Fascinated Isla said: "They're not here to hurt anyone, they're not here to harm. "You have to love the unloved. That's why I like them." Megan added: "She was just turning six when she got her first one. We did all hope it was a phase but four years is a long time. "Since then Isla's helped me come to terms with it. I do think education is key to help a fear and I think that's what Isla tries to get across on social media. Skin-crawling moment more than 140 tarantulas found hidden in CHESS SET by customs officers "It is scary being in a house with over a hundred tarantulas but I feel as a parent, you have to support your children. "When you ask most kids what they want they'll say sweets or a toy. Isla says she wants a tarantula." Tarantulas can cost from "£3 to over £100" depending on age, size and species. Some females can live to over 20 years. 5 5 5

As this video shows, these two are just having an absolute ball. And the way that this little Wombat runs back and forth is so totally precious. They give off some serious playful puppy vibes.
