Sloth World Orlando, a theme park featuring sloths, is set to file for bankruptcy and will not open as planned. According to reports, the decision was made due to “no other options.”

In addition, dozens of animals have died at Sloth World, prompting an investigation. Thirteen surviving sloths were recently transferred to the Central Florida Zoo in Sanford.
