Kids Saving the Rainforest was started by two 9 year old girls in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica. Since 1999 KSTR has grown to be an international organization that receives volunteers from all over the world! Our Rescue Center and Sanctuary rescues on average 200 animals each year. As you can imagine monkeys and sloths aren't paying customers, so we have to rely on the generosity and kindness of like minded people who want to make a difference and save the tropical rainforest of Costa Rica.
Kids Saving the Rainforest Celebrates their 20th Anniversary
Rehabilitating Costa Rican Wildlife and Saving the Rainforest Since 1999
19 February 2019, Palo Alto, CA- Kids Saving the Rainforest (KSTR) is proud to announce it’s 20-year anniversary of protecting and rehabilitating wildlife, conducting scientific research, aiding in reforestation, training volunteers, and promoting conservation in Costa Rica. Started by two 9-year-old girls in 1999 with a roadside stand made of recycled cardboard boxes in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica and a desire to save the rainforest from being cut down, Janine and Aislin gave 40 dollars to an organization to help save an acre of land. After following up with the organization where they had donated to, it was clear that their money was misused. This unfortunate situation inspired KSTR’s current President, Jennifer Rice (and mom to Janine), along with the two girls to create the 20-year, 501 tax-deductible organization to ensure that anyone donating money to help the rainforest will know where their donations went. Soon after, KSTR was asked to help save the endangered Titi monkeys and later sloths and other rainforest animals who were being harmed as a result of the ever-growing human population and their rainforest homes vanishing. “We’re now rescuing 120 animals each year and are happy to report, Titi monkeys are no longer endangered,” Rice proudly said.
Fueled by the desire to save the Costa Rican rainforest and its inhabitants, KSTR has planted over 101,000 trees and built nearly 150 wildlife bridges over roads, which has prevented over 22 different wildlife species from getting hit by cars or getting electrocuted. Twenty years later, KSTR is successfully helping to educate people around the world about the ecological importance of the rainforest through their onsite education center, tours, camp programs, and school outreach programs.

Sloth with a baby!
It is the most charismatic animal from Costa Rica, the three-toed sloth is very common at Manuel Antonio National Park. It is more active during daytime and is found from 0 to 2400 meters above sea level.
The genus “Bradypus” means: slowness foot. Normally the sloths move in slow motion, they do that to save energy to survive in the field. The leaves that they eat provide them little energy, that’s why they must preserve this important source. Bradypus can eat more than 40 different species of trees, but they prefer to consume some more than others.
The babies stay with the mother only six months, after that are weaned by females. The little ones can survive very well by themselves. To find the correct leaves to eat they use the sense of smell. Regularly they avoid to eat leaves with a lot of alkaloids, but in hard conditions, they eat them.
They come down one a week to defecate to remove all traces of odor that can be used by a predator (Jaguar or Puma) to find the sloths. They use their vestigial tails to make a hole in the ground and then they covered it with the leaflitter.
Can survive 30 years, and weigh up to 4 kilograms. May rotate the head 270 degree and have territories of 2 hectares.
