TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — The Topeka Zoo is celebrating the birth of a Hoffmann’s two-toed sloth.

The Topeka Capital-Journal reports the sloth named Newt was born Wednesday morning. Zoo staff hasn’t determined Newt’s gender.

Zoo director Brendan Wiley says it’s difficult to know a newborn sloth’s gender without a physical examination, and staff plans to not disturb Newt and the mother unless there is a medical concern.

Newt is offspring number fourteen of its mother 26-year-old Jackie.

Hoffmann’s Two-toed sloths are native to a small area of Central and South America. They are threatened by deforestation.
