The zoo's two-toed sloth, Indigo, https://www.facebook.com/MandaiWildlifeReserve/videos/488394659839622/ gave birth in mid-September last year, and since then the zoo has released https://www.facebook.com/MandaiWildlifeReserve/posts/pfbid0o51fZzVtd1YGsSPGYLVYxRmenyDgNfksNiKnWPDmKZSYkJM4SN5Fiyabp6XD3q4Ql several videos and https://www.facebook.com/MandaiWildlifeReserve/posts/pfbid0o51fZzVtd1YGsSPGYLVYxRmenyDgNfksNiKnWPDmKZSYkJM4SN5Fiyabp6XD3q4Ql images of the pair. One visitor to the zoo, Yu Jifeng, captured footage of the mother sloth resting with her baby on her chest whilst only gripping onto a tree with her feet, though a nearby branch may just be helping offer additional support. Sharing the footage to https://www.douyin.com/video/7167246240030231823 Douyin in November, Jifeng commented that the baby was "soundly" asleep at the time.
