Within the next few days, I saw tons of colorful butterflies that I'd never seen alive before, including a metallic-like blue butterfly, a few agouti, MANY more coatamundis (called pizotes in Spanish), a red-brown parrot, interesting shiny beetles, and not so new things such as dragonflies, leaf-cutter ants, centipedes, caterpillars, moths, spiders, etc.

So CUTE!!
ReplyDeleteYes! They're related to raccoons so can be somewhat nasty when threatened...
ReplyDeleteDo they wash their food like raccoons?
