Anteaters & Crocs at Carara National Park
Something big shuffled across the path just a few yards in front of me. The animal walked unhurriedly, and somewhat resembled a coatimundi in both behavior and stature. However, its light color and black stripe just didn't fit the bill. I motioned for my guide, Roy Arroyo with JD Watersports, just as he was rounding the bend. The crunching of leaves underfoot spooked the creature, but Roy had time to identify the mystery being as an anteater. And by the looks of its clean white fur, it was a very young one at that.
