The Fort Worth Zoo’s oldest exhibit is celebrating new life with a grand reopening featuring a brand-new addition.
The World of Primates originally opened in 1996, and its mountain of renovations will soon be unveiled along with a new feature of the zoo, a two-toed sloth, Olive.
Michael Fouraker, executive director of the Fort Worth Zoo, said in a statement per NBC DFW, “We are always excited when there is an opportunity to introduce Fort Worth to a new animal at the Zoo.
“Guests have long requested a sloth, and we’re thrilled to provide a home for one. We hope the sloth species’ popularity and charm will inspire connection and allow us to continue our mission of strengthening the bond between humans and wildlife by providing close-up experiences with and fostering an appreciation for animals.”
