🐻 A Sri Lankan sloth bear is walking along the road for a good time with us. He is a fearless and calm character. He just needs to move to his destination. We caught him at the Welmal-kema road in Yala national park. The time was 9.25am.
The Sri Lankan sloth bear (Melursus ursinus inornatus) is a subspecies of the sloth bear which is found mainly in lowland dry forests on the island of Sri Lanka. Being omnivorous, it feeds on nuts, berries, and roots, as well as carrion and meat. One of its main staples is insects, which it removes from rotting stumps and trees with its long, hairless snout. Otherwise, it rarely kills animals.
The Sri Lankan sloth bear is highly threatened, with a population of less than 1000 in many isolated populations with population decrease. Destruction of dry-zone natural forests is its main threat because, unlike other large Sri Lankan animals, the Sri Lankan sloth bear is highly dependent on natural forests for its food source. An increase in sloth bear-human interaction has also caused many conflicts.
