- A Linne’s two-toed sloth was born at the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland’s Edinburgh Zoo on May 11, marking the first sloth birth in Scotland.
- The baby sloth has been named Atty in honour of Sir David Attenborough, who celebrated his 100th birthday on May 8.
- The name is a nod to Sir David's 2017 BBC interview where he expressed a desire to be a sloth for a day.
- Atty will spend his first six months clinging to his mother, Feira, who is a first-time parent along with father Nico.
- Visitors can see Atty and Feira in the sloth house from 2pm on Wednesday, May 13, though opening hours may vary.
