Field Notes
Description:
The white-nosed coati is closely related to a raccoon. The average adult male coati is about 3.5 feet long and weighs close to 10 pounds. The male coatis are almost twice the size of females.
If you look closely you can see the faint banding on the tail
Habitat:
Even though, coatis are diurnal animals that spend most of their time on the ground, they prefer to sleep in the trees. The trees offer them better protection from predators
Notes:
This family group was foraging on the side of a road
