A company of tourists in the USA was sailing on a boat along the river when they suddenly noticed an animal on the rocks near the shore. It turned out to be a sloth, which they saw just in time.

A small group of tourists in the US spotted this sloth as they passed by on a boat. Seeing that the animal fell into the river and could not get out on its own, the tourists decided to help it as soon as possible.
A couple of men stepped out of the boat onto the shore. They found strong sticks that the sloth could grab on to, and brought the stick closer to it. It seemed to know that it was being rescued – and immediately reached out with its paws to the stick.
The sloth caught on a stick with its paws and was successfully pulled ashore. Children from the boat shouted: “Come on, you can do it!”, “Well done, you did it!” “Goodbye sloth”. Judging by the contented expression on the sloth’s face, it itself was happy to be rescued!
Then the men took the animal to the forest and put it on a tree, where the sloth remained. It looked back at its rescuers and seemed to smile in gratitude. Thanks to the good people for saving this friend!
