What does ethical wildlife tourism really look like? In this YouTube bonus episode, DeAndre and Taryn share their unforgettable visit to Mayan Eden, a hidden jungle sanctuary in Roatan, Honduras. While the country has banned all sloth touching, this sanctuary proves that hands-off, educational experiences can still be deeply meaningful. From spider monkeys and free-flying toucans to sloths that choose to return home each night, this was one of the most authentic wildlife encounters they’ve ever had. The episode also dives into Honduras’ sloth protection laws, the importance of responsible tourism, and a zipline adventure you won’t forget.
