I love all Anteaters, but the Tamandua is certainly one of the most handsome! The strength in their forepaws and claws is incredible. Great image Jeff!

So nice that you like it Pierre, someone told me once " a howler monkey should be howling on your shots, the spider monk should look like a spider on their pose" so I guess I was lucky to get the Anteater trying to get some ants... Kind regards from Costa Rica!!!
