Did you know? Tamandua Jan 29 2008
There are two species of tamandua, the northern (Tamandua mexicana) and the southern (Tamandua tetradactyla).
These anteaters are found in Central and South America.
The northern tamandua has a distinct “v” marking on its back which occurs only in some southern tamanduas.
The animals have four digits on their front feet and five on their hind feet. They walk on the outer edge of their forepaws so as not to cut themselves with their sharp claws.
