    1. I rather enjoy it:-). It brings back so many good memories! But there are several thousands to go trough and I have absolutely nothing done with the pictures yet. But I'll try my best... Posted 9 years ago
      1. We've got time, bring them on in your own pace. You travel history is unique, I don't know of any person with that history behind them. Posted 9 years ago

The southern tamandua, also called a collared anteater, or lesser anteater, is a species of anteater from South America. It is a solitary animal, found in many habitats from mature to highly disturbed secondary forests and arid savannas. It feeds on ants, termites and bees. It has very strong foreclaws that can be used to break insect nests or to defend itself.
