Warning: Very smelly!

These South American animals are closely related to racoons. Their long noses cause them to be mistaken for anteaters.  They can use those long snouts to search for insects.  They are playful, but somewhat shy at times. They are not big fans of loud crowds. 

The red coatis are the sweetest, but have a VERY strong musky smell.  We don’t recommend them for indoor parties due to their odor.
