Being a sloth is hard work. I mean, all that hanging around, eating leaves, getting green fur!!

Still, despite all this, sloths need to be kept clean, especially if your a baby living inside and recovering from potential skin ailments.

So what do you do?

You bath your sloth!

This collection of photographs is taken from a documentary filmed by the Animal Planet called “meet the sloths”. Meet The Sloths follows a year in the life of five slow-moving residents of the Sloth Sanctuary of Costa Rica, a sanctuary dedicated to saving orphaned or injured sloths.

So the video starts out with the gathering of the sloths into a bucket for safe keeping.

Then its time to get these little guys into the water. Using a little brush to help clean their fur and skin.

On the face of it, I’d say these sloths love bath time.

Once you have given your sloth a bath, what better way to dry your sloth then to hang it out to dry!

So there we have it. Ever wondered how you bath you sloth.. check out the full video below:
