The oso perezoso, which translates to lazy bear, was found by transit police and appeared to be frightened as it clung to a barrier along the highway.
The Ecuador Highway Commission shared photos of the encounter on their Facebook page.

In a recent Facebook update, the Ecuador Highway Commission showed how happy the sloth is to be in its new home.
