The Sloth Institute took her in and introduced her to other sloths as she started to recover.

Last August, Destiny was fitted for her tracking collar and released back into the wild. This inspiring story not only encourages kids to bedetermined like Destiny, but it also shows them the importance of being kind to those who may look different than us"--
