Or if you prefer Southern Anteater.  This is the smaller of the 2 anteater species that we photographed on our Brazil trip in the Pantanal.  This is full frame, I wish I had a zoom handy when he showed up as in this image he is actually standing up on his hind legs.

A sweet portrait of this fascinating species Nate, lovely detail. I would be lost without my zoom for wildlife opportunities!

Nice looking animal with its black shoulder strap and racing strip down the back. The curve of the body from nose to back provides a nice element.

Well done Nate - the lines of the arcs with contrasting fur color work extremely well in this composition.
