SOUTHERN TAMANDUA (Lesser Anteater) Tamandua tetradactyla ©Laura Quick The Southern tamandua is a medium-sized anteater with a prehensile tail, small eyes and ears, and a long snout. Their thick fur is pale yellow over most of the body. The tamandua consumes about 9,000 ants/termites/bees daily, eating a few hundred at a time from a variety of nests within its territory. Its very strong fore claws can be used to break insect nests or to defend itself. This one resides comfortably at the Los Angeles Zoo. They can release a scent 4 times stronger than skunk spray if they feel threatened #southerntamandua #tamanduatetradactyla #©lauraquick #southamerica #venezuela #lesseranteater #anteater #9000antsaday #arboreal #prehensiletail #analgland #releasescent #sharpclaws #cute #10lbs #leastconcern https://www.instagram.com/p/B7TjmnjHvQc/?igshid=12tkkcs57i3wf

… 雪が降った日、喜び勇んでひとり上野動物園へ。 思いの外みんな元気そうに歩き回ったりしてたし 動物園は悪天候の方が見応えあって楽しいのでは と思ってしまうくらい。 また雪降らないかなぁ。 #uenozoo #lutra #otter #eurasianotter #europeanotter #largibbon #hylobateslar #anteater #southerntamandua #tamanduatetradactyla #ユーラシアカワウソ #シロテテナガザル #ミナミコアリクイ #カワウソ #サル #アリクイ #上野動物園 https://www.instagram.com/p/Btxd5V6nQ0k/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ib4u46l83fnw

Here's my finished tamandua. Tamanduas are smaller relatives of the giant anteater. They are semiarboreal and have partially prehensile tails. They give off a strong smell to mark their territory and are sometimes called "stinkers of the forest".🙊 They're also pretty clumsy when they move around which makes them fun to watch. Go check out some videos.😊 This guy will be joining my shop update on Sunday. Happy first day of spring!🌷 . . . #tamandua #lesseranteater #anteater #southerntamandua #southamericanwildlife #fibreartist #woolart #arttoy #softsculpture #kawaiiart #sculpture #biodiversity #wildlifeart #madeintoronto #wildwhimsywoolies
