Mineral licking has been reported in most herbivorous mammal taxa; however, the frequency of mineral lick use by Pilosa at ground level in the wild is rare. Ho!mann's two-toed sloth (Choloepus ho!manni), an herbivorous Pilosa species, is nocturnal and arboreal. We present the first case of saline sand consumption by a Ho!mann's two-toed sloth in Costa Rica.
