A baby sloth at the Costa Rica Sloth Sanctuary found a camera and proceeded to 'take' a bunch of adorable selfies.

The video starts out with this baby sloth just chilling inside a container. Its expression looks happy while it gives one of its arms a good scratch.

Once the itch is satisfied, the baby starts exploring its surroundings.

It is very intrigued by the camera mounted by the container and starts inspecting it. Its longing gaze looks right into the lens as if it knows just how to melt the hearts of anybody who would go on to watch the video.

Then, it stretches one arm out to the camera. The video provides camera shutter sounds and pauses for screenshots, which makes it seem like the baby sloth is taking selfies. 

One viewer writes, "When a sloth can take a better selfie than you." She's absolutely right – we have never seen a more photogenic sloth.

We aspire to be as carefree and happy as this little baby sloth. Pass this along to your friends and family to brighten up their day with this cutie.
