nope:cool:


althought another local shop has Kinkajous, man are they awsome creatures and expensive.

i knew that wasnt a Kinkajou only becuase the latest pet that Paris Hilton has showed up with in the news was a Kinkajou....its a little bit of a squishier face than that IMO...anyways...
i hate guessing games. lol. i have no idea what it is.

Coatiamundi.

Oh oh oh It's a coatimundi(or something like that)

yup.

They got 2 from a local reptile zoo as 3 week old babies, the guy in the pic took them home with him to hand bottle feed them every few hours. They let them run around the shop today while we were in there getting some frozen mice and they started to try and eat the mice and when they took the mice away, they got into a bag of chinese food they had for their lunch.
Rice everywhere:)

Very cool critters and they get into EVERYTHING/

They are the Japanese equivalent of a raccoon/doglet kind of thing - they were all over the place in Yokosuka. I'm embarrassed to say I am not sure if they are closer to dog fox raccoon or what - but they're cute pokemon looking little buggers.

Pikachu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i was going to say...hmmm...they get into everything...sounds like a racoon to me!
they are quite a cute critter though!

They are related to raccoons.. they're becoming a popular exotic pet, it's not hard to find info on coatis.

thats really cool, i have never heard of them. But i already have my fair share of pets....and i want more...i'm going to try to not add one of those cuties to my list. lol.

i thought it was an ant eater too...because of the longer nose.

Nice Hogg!

i've never seen those in my life, they look like anteaters!

I think this animal is actually in the raccoon family.

yep its in the family Procyonidae (same as racoons)Another name for this animal is the hog-nosed coon.

if im not mistaken, I believe you can also find these wild in the southwest us.

i thought it was spelled koadimundi and i know they're from central and south america. not Japan.

Cute.. I looked them up, and they seem to be one of those animals that would enjoy life in captivity; hopefully, people who get them know what they're getting into though!
Nice BP in those pics too; cool back striping.
