Comment vous aidez!
Habitant les forêts tropicales d'Amérique centrale et d'Amérique du Sud, il existe actuellement six espèces de paresseux dans deux familles distinctes; connu sous le nom de deux ou trois doigts. Plusieurs problèmes menacent l'avenir des paresseux sauvages, ce qui conduit au déclin des populations actuellement observées chez plusieurs espèces.
Votre don aidera la Sloth Conservation Foundation à poursuivre de nombreux projets vitaux, notamment la connexion d'un habitat fragmenté, la création de traversées de paresseux, l'isolation des lignes électriques, la stérilisation des chiens, l'éducation et la libération des paresseux!

Who We Fund
Our three incredible organisations
YOU can make a difference
We have paired up with The Sloth Conservation Foundation in Costa Rica, and are donating 10% of all profits to assist with their efforts in saving the sloth. Sloths face many threats across their range, which without any action may push their populations to decline. We are thrilled to be supporting such an incredible organisation, who work tirelessly to save this threatened species. You can help to save wild sloths today, through just a single purchase of any of our nature-themed jewellery and clothing.
Oceanic Society
Oceanic Society is America’s oldest non-profit organisation dedicated to ocean conservation. For more than 50 years, they have worked to inspire and empower people worldwide to take part in building a healthy future for the world’s oceans. Their mission is to improve ocean health by deepening the connections between people and nature to address the root cause of its decline: human behaviour. Some of their key areas of focus include sea turtle conservation, plastic pollution, climate change, sustainable seafood, access to nature and sustainable travel.
The Sloth Conservation Foundation
The Sloth Conservation Foundation (SloCo) is a registered non-profit organisation dedicated to saving sloths in the wild, through research and conservation initiatives. To achieve this, SloCo develops long-term community-based conservation solutions that target both human and sloth populations, with the goal of developing sustainable and beneficial ways for sloths to coexist with the people sharing their habitat. SloCo was founded in 2017 and is based in the South Caribbean of Costa Rica. Check out their community page here.
Lewa Wildlife Conservancy
The Lewa Wildlife Conservancy, based at the foothills of Mount Kenya, works as a model and catalyst for the conservation of wildlife and its habitat. They do this through the protection and management of species, the initiation and support of community conservation and development programmes, and the education of neighbouring areas in the value of wildlife. Since their establishment in 1995, their practices have resulted in thriving black rhino habitat and populations, which in turn has created a robust ecosystem for a multitude of species including the endangered Grevy’s zebra, elephant, lion, cheetah, giraffe and more.

Ce que nous faisons
Le défrichage des terres pour les plantations de bois / pâte à papier et l'élevage de bétail entraîne de graves pertes d'habitat. Non seulement cela entraîne une baisse rapide du nombre de paresseux, mais peut également entraîner de très faibles niveaux de diversité génétique en raison du confinement de petites populations de paresseux. Des utilisations alternatives telles que la production de charbon et les plantations de cacao sont également courantes.
Agriculture
Le développement des routes et des voies ferrées est l'une des menaces les plus persistantes pour les paresseux. Cela provoque une fragmentation extrême de l'habitat, forçant les paresseux à traverser les routes et les lignes électriques mal isolées. Les collisions routières sont probables, tandis que 75% des paresseux ne survivront pas à l'électrocution d'une ligne électrique.
Routes / chemins de fer
La plus grande menace pour les paresseux est la croissance rapide de la population humaine, qui alimente l'urbanisation et l'aménagement du territoire. Les efforts du gouvernement pour convertir les zones protégées en sites résidentiels et touristiques au sein de l'habitat des paresseux exercent des pressions importantes sur les populations d'Amérique centrale et d'Amérique du Sud.
