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.
