This week we were kept busy with calls about raccoons. Check out our blog for more on our methods of dealing with pesky wild neighbors, HERE.
Also on our blog, HERE, we address fatally flawed barn owl nest-boxes, and the reasoning behind certain design requirements.
And, exclusively for our Wild Byte subscribers: photos from colleagues in Brazil washing oil from a brown-throated sloth that was found hanging from a truck after the vehicle ran off the road and collided with a tree. The animal had either been disturbed by the incident or was on the ground defecating when the accident occurred. Sloths only descend to the ground from their tree-top homes to defecate every 8-10 days or so. The animal was cleaned and released back where he was originally found. Here's a link to their website.
