Forest Habitat – Reforest The Tropics

Forest Habitat

A new visitor to the forest recently seen climbing on a Deglupta hybrid or Rainbow tree because of its lovely colored bark. The southern tamandua, also called a collared anteater, or lesser anteater (Tamandua tetradactyla), is normally nocturnal, we were lucky to catch the moment.

The markings are distinctive, this example is strongly vested, and it is best to avoid close contact as they can produce an unpleasant scent when aggravated. The forests bring wildlife back to this area that was previously an open field for grazing cattle.
