We might all ask ourselves, what does a sloth sound like? Today is the day we find out in an adorable video of a group of tiny baby sloths at a sanctuary in Costa Rica. It's a squeaky, joyful sound and will be sure to bring the giggles on as they appear to carry on a detailed conversation with one another.

The slow-moving sloth population is at risk because of habitat destruction from human encroachment in their jungle homes according to the Sloth Sanctuary Costa Rica Facebook page. Since 1992, the wonderful organization has been rescuing, rehabilitating, and sometimes releasing the sloths back into the wild.

While they hang out at the sanctuary, these sloths are able to make a few friends during their time there. These little guys are more than happy to get vocal, as evidenced by this adorable video.

They climb and go upside down and emit almost human-like yells in the presence of their human companions. Their big eyes and fuzzy coats are irresistibly adorable, and at one point in the video, a clumsy baby almost falls off their bar while an onlooker giggles and says "Poor baby!"

What do you think about the cuties? Let us know and tell others about the surprising sound that a sloth makes. Maybe you can spread awareness of the sloth's situation.
