Homer the sloth gets new home at Detroit Zoo

(WJBK) - Zoogoers used to flock to the National Amphibian Conservation Center to catch a glimpse of Homer the sloth, but the animal has new digs now.

Homer is a much bigger area that, yes, still includes his beloved tree that he loves to sleep in. His old area will welcome a new Japanese salamander exhibit.

You can learn more about Homer from Detroit Zoo Director Ron Kagan by watching the video in the player above.
