this is an animal called a viscacha and i wanted to bless your timelines with their fluffy roumdness

this is a binturong, also known as a bearcat. apparently they smell like movie theater popcorn. which... has frankly put me off movie theater popcorn.

this is a tree kangaroo and i request there be one in the next ZOOTOPIA

this is a coatimundi and i feel like they’re badger/squirrels? nature is delightful.

it’s true! and they also spend all day SCREAMING AT THE TOP OF THEIR LUNGS https://twitter.com/cromartyheather/status/1245918830729154562?s=21 https://twitter.com/cromartyheather/status/1245918830729154562

we don’t talk enough about how baby giant anteaters spend all day clinging to their mom’s bums

look at this blorb! it’s a ringed seal. VERY FINE PLUMAGE!

last one for the night: the tasmanian echidna. true story, on one of our first dates my husband and i went to the zoo and i mortified him by (loudly) correcting a woman who called it a porcupine

i take it back, this is the last one. a south american prehensile-tailed porcupine. it’s sooooooooo cute. and dexterous!
