ST. LOUIS, Mo. – This gift from the St. Louis Zoo may be exactly what you should get your significant other if they are an animal lover.

The zoo was allowing people to adopt sloths as a Valentine’s Day gift, before they sold out. But there is a catch.

You couldn’t directly take home a sloth, but you would have receive a stuffed one, and the money that is used will go toward feeding and caring for these animals at the St. Louis Zoo.

There are also other animal adoption packages that can be bought as well, and are still available.

Also listed for “adoption” was a black rhinoceros, grizzly bear and a black and white ruffed lemur.
