Be ready to get acquainted with one of the most exotic pets. Kinkajous – they are not very easy to tame, but who likes simple and straight ways? I don’t. But, these pets are so curious, so playful, so friendly and amazing. They eat bananas, the same as monkeys. They communicate with a help of sounds, the loudest scream of Kinkajous is very much alike with a woman shout. Usually these animals are non-aggressive. But there are some cases of attacks after years of ideal behavior! It is even interesting to own such a pet, you will always stay tuned!

As a rule, Kinkajou weighs up to 3 kg, its unusual nickname “Honey Bear”, this animal got from the habit to eat honey (only captive species). Wild animals prefer drinking nectar from flowers. They can easily do it because of a special mouth formation – sharp teeth and long tongue. Tail is used as a means of climbing or a 5th hand. Kinkajous have short hair and special scent glands allowing them not to loose their weigh (each piece of territory and each place can be marked with a special liquid). These animals prefer sleeping together and moreover, taking care about each other and smaller species. As a rule, they live up to 23 years (maximal duration of life – 40 years!). Kinkajous are very often mistaken with olingos.
