Kinkajou
The kinkajou (Potos flavus), also known as the 'honey bear' (a name it shares with the sun bear), is a rainforest mammal of the family Procyonidae related to olingos, coatis, raccoons, and the ringtail and cacomistle. It is the only member of the genus Potos. Kinkajous may be mistaken for ferrets or monkeys, but are not closely related to either. Native to Central America and South America, this arboreal mammal is not an endangered species, though it is seldom seen by people because of its strict nocturnal habits. However, they are hunted for the pet trade, for their fur (to make wallets and horse saddles) and for their meat. The species has been included in Appendix III of CITES by Honduras, which means that exports from Honduras require an export permit and exports from other countries require a certificate of origin or re-export. They may live up to 40 years in captivity.

Cute teddy bear face kinkajou female for sale, she is only 2 month old and a loving pet . Very active, fun and social with cats, dogs and people . She is being raised in my USDA licensened home with lots of TLC and will come with her toys, bottle, formula and all the support you need. I am about to start college and can not have her unfortunately. Looking for a good home . Ive checked and shipping won't be hard if needed. I paid $2000 for her two weeks ago but willing to sell for only $1300 to a really great home where she will continue to be loved and spoiled .

Hi Tery nice to see you found Pedegru! and I really like Kinkajou but I was wondering what kind of animal she is? I've never seen an Alpaca like this before...lol, she is so cute! So if you need any help understanding how to enter your animal or if we don't have your animal listed we can add any type or kind. Just let me know, always glad to help. Best, Todd
