LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) - A new sloth exhibit will open when the Louisville Zoo reopens to the public, officials said.
Construction on the exhibit was nearly complete last week and zoo officials said in a statement that the exhibit will be one of the first notable events to occur when more is known about when the public can safely visit the facility again. The zoo is currently closed to help prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
In the meantime, people can connect with the sloths virtually. The zoo said a new sloth Twitter feed @louzoosloths is live and shows humorous updates on the exhibit and the activities of the animals, which are named Sunni and Sebastian.
