Snuggle with a sloth at Little Ray's Nature Center in Destiny USA

Little Ray’s Nature Center takes in animals brought up in captivity, or confiscated, or that need to be rescued. The Canadian private zoo opened a new center in Syracuse's Destiny USA mall in 2021. Video by Katrina Tulloch.

Nice

Cool but I don't think they should be living in a mall.

People can learn about the animals. And as they said in the story they couldn’t survive in the wild. And since they have not been in the wild they don’t know any different. They are having the best life feasible.

It’s better then dying out on the streets. Plus they’re well taken care of and loved.

@@kittydude14 they belong in a much better simulated habitat like a sanctuary or a zoo. Not in a store at the mall where they will get zero fresh air or sunlight.

@@HAL-9000. I did not say they were having the best life of simulated habitat .I said they are having the best life FEASIBLE. For whatever reasons zoos and sanctuaries don't take every animal that is offered to them.
