Meet Bella- the kinkajou. She is way too hyper for her own good. I was doing this for a good hour before I was exaughsted. She is still bouncing off the walls- literally. Better pictures to come later.

Very cool! I recently saw a site that sold these and thought it would be cool to have one, lol!
 
That's awesome! So how does one keep one of these? I know they eat fruit mainly and are nocturnal but what else is involved with keeping this species in the US? I've seen them up close in the Belize Zoo but that was an outdoor setup in their native home.
 
I keep her in a large bird cage when I am not with her-otherwise she free roams. She is eating a variety of fruits as well as monkey biscuits. I am currently treating her for worms. During warmer months though there is a large out door enclosure she stays in. I am just babysitting her indefinitely (until my boss is able to sell her at his ridiculously high asking price of $4000). I don't mind though, she is a blast to care for.
 
they are much more closely related to racoons actually.
 
Couldnt be baby sitting it when I visited could ya man? Lol. Awesome little creature
