Salvador, a life-size replica of the extinct Giant Ground Sloth, greets visitors entering the Sloth Sanctuary.

Paleontologists have identified an amazing variety of fossils of at least 23 different kinds and sizes of prehistoric sloths. The largest and grandest of these was the Megatherium, the extinct genus of the family Bradypodidae. This giant stood seven meters tall and weighed seven tons. Megatherium (“giant beast” in Latin) lived from about 35 million to 11,000 years ago, coinciding with the last Ice Age.

Theories abound in the scientific world about the disappearance of these creatures. Among them is the suggestion that fast changes of climate killed them, or that human hunters that had crossed into Alaska killed them for food as they moved throughout North America.

Another theory hypothesizes that these southern sloths had lived on an island that held few carnivores for thousands of years. During the Great American Interchange, northern animals learned to watch out for carnivores that traveled south at the same time they did. The southern herbivores had not learned to be cautious as they traveled north. Many of them may have been eaten by their new neighbors.

Yet another theory suggests that disease terminated these giants of the Americas. Little evidence available causes these gaps in our knowledge about the Giant Ground Sloth.

Megalonyx (“great claw”) is the Greek name for another of the giant ground sloths. The name was proposed by Thomas Jefferson in 1797, based on fossil specimens found in a cave in West Virginia. Megalonyx jeffersonii, of the family Megalonychidae, was a large, heavily built animal about 8 to 10 feet (2.5–3 m) long. Its maximum weight may have been as much as 800 pounds. This is medium-sized among the giant ground sloths.

Like other ground sloths it had a blunt snout, massive jaw nd large, peg-like teeth. The hind limbs were plantigrade (flat-footed) and this, along with its stout tail, allowed it to rear up into a semi-erect position to feed on tree leaves. The forelimbs had three highly developed claws that were probably used to strip leaves and tear off branches.

M. jeffersonii was apparently the most wide-ranging giant ground sloth. Fossils are known from many Pleistocene sites in the United States, including most of the states east of the Rocky Mountains as well as along the west coast. It was the only ground sloth to range as far north as the present-day Yukon and Alaska.

In 2010, the first specimen ever found in Colorado was discovered at the Ziegler Reservoir site near Snowmass Village (in the Rocky Mountains at an elevation of 8,874 feet). Why the Giant Ground Sloth, as with other megafauna of the Miocene epoch, grew to such enormous size is a mystery.

Besides their bulk, these sloths were distinguished by their significantly longer front than hind legs, a clue that they used their long front claws to rope in copious amounts of vegetation. As big as it was, though, Megalonyx was a mere pup compared to the truly giant Megatherium.

Megatherium and Megalonyx are distant relatives of today’s modern Two- and Three-fingered sloths that live in Central and South America.

You will feel the stress of the world melt away as you walk up towards the lodge the first time. For the next 3 days, everything you need will be found underneath the massive thatch roof of the "Rancho". We will show you around and take you to your tent. The rest of the afternoon is yours to explore, unwind or get the kids to the water slide.  A massage is also a lovely option. The birds will sings lullabies as the sun sets by about 6pm.

Dinner is served at about 7PM (usually).

The host will explain your activity options around the dinner table. After dinner there, you are welcome to choose a board game, skim through natural history books, or just enjoy the symphony provided by the frogs and insects.

The following morning, you will find coffee in the main lodge at 6:30am. Breakfast will be served shortly thereafter and will be served until about 10:00am. The free time before your tour provides a great opportunity to go for a self guided hike, take a birding tour with Steven, jog to the village or simply sleep in!

The first of your two adventures will take about 4 to 6 hours depending on the trip. Lunch is served in the field on the hiking and rafting tours, but you will dine in house with the horseback trip.

After your tour, it is time for the slide... Kids spend hours going down, you'll love the fact that they have to walk back up! You may join them in the fun or simply watch for the comfort of the hot tub with taste beverage in hand.

There will still be lots of daylight left to get an afternoon walk in.

By now, you will start to get a hang of Rafiki. You will have forgotten that you own a tie, high heels, and the importance of time. The scene at the lodge will be similar as the first night in regards to location and tour planning. There may be some new faces and of course fresh options for dinner! This might be the night to get the night hike in with Steven or Randol.

So relax, you are now a seasoned "Rafikian". The new guests will be looking up to you for guidance on how to obtain that grin you are wearing!

After your second tour, you may wonder what the third trip would have been all about... If you are not pressed for time on the departure date, it may be feasible to squeeze another trip in before you leave, just ask the host!

The last morning to enjoy the Savegre. If you have a little time, this may a good moment get that hike in up to the waterfall. Your interest in birds may now be so keen that you actually want to know the name of all the of birds around. Steven would gladly take you Birding. You can also get a souvenir or a tee shirt from reception on your way out! Check out is at 11:00am...If your following destination is close by, perhaps you can do a  kayak trip on the way out.
