AFTER picking out a feminine name for their slothy senorita, Drusillas Park in Alfriston has discovered that Consuela the sloth is packing something slightly different to most females… Consuela is actually a male.

It’s very hard to determine the gender of a sloth as there is virtually no difference between males and females.

In fact it is so hard to tell their sex, it’s actually quicker to send a fur sample off for DNA testing than it is for zoo keepers to try and work it out for themselves.

Head keeper Mark Kenward had his suspicions for a while that Consuela wasn’t female. After embarking on a little investigation, he uncovered that the poor fella had been wrongly named.

Drusillas is launching a competition to re-name Consuela. Anyone who wants to win go to the Drusillas Facebook page.
