Sloths are mingling with the human population as humans move into the sloth's normal habitat areas and are being killed in car accidents or are electrocuted when they use powerlines to get around, WTHR reported.

They are in quarantine until August when they're expected to be put on display with five other sloths at the Indianapolis Zoo, according to WTHR.
