ECUADOR (WSVN) —  Transit police in Ecuador saved a sloth who was clinging on for his life on the side of a highway last week near Quevedo.

Officials said the animal was later returned to his natural habitat after he was checked out by a veterinarian, who determined that it was in optimal conditions for return to its habitat," a Facebook post said.

The photos were shared on Facebook where they have went viral with over 13,000 shares and nearly 44,000 likes.
