Sloths with Lucy Houliston

Into The Wild

I've genuinely never heard someone say "Sloths? Me? Nah, not a fan." Because how could anyone not love them. So when I was sat wondering what animal to talk about next, it hit me......slowly (because it was a Sloth).

Joining me on this week's episode is NatGeo Young Explorer, Zoologist & Sloth advocate, Lucy Houliston. From where we can find them, to how many species & more importantly, what they sound like & how they.......you know....poop. Lucy dives into the detail. We also touch on the conservation of Sloths & not only why these animals are at risk but also why they are such an important ambassador species for their habitat.

After our chat we also spoke about another passion of Lucy's & that's "weird wildlife". Lucy has always favoured the 'not so loved' & is taking part in something called Change for Strange which she told me on about.
