The Tree of Life Rescue Center provides a safe and nurturing environment for a variety of animals, including sloths, monkeys, parrots, toucans, and other native species.

You can even participate in volunteer activities, such as preparing food or cleaning enclosures (depending on availability). By visiting the Tree of Life Wildlife Rescue Center, you're not only supporting their important work but also gaining a deeper appreciation for the incredible biodiversity of Costa Rica.
