Coati Pie

Do you know the coati? These little darlings are in the raccoon family and can go down trees head first.

Usually lots of lady coatis hang out together in what is called “bands” (We’re coming to your town! We’re gonna party down!)

Gentlemen coatis hang out by themselves (I’m Mr. Lonely).

Keep up the good work at Coast and Canyon Wildlife, Kim B.

No Good Deed Goes Unphotobombed

(sigh) It was a simple thing, really. He was swimming in circles with some fishing line tangled in his teeth, and I was there on the dock, so I fly over and pluck it out.

End of it, right? But no, he’s had a few, and now he’s all “I love you, man!” this and “Anything you want, bro!” that, and I haven’t been rid of him since. Just my luck.

This sweet bebbeh koala is the very definish of that which pleases merely by being seen.

“Orphaned four-month-old koala joey Squeaky is cared for at Port Macquarie Koala Hospital, New South Wales, Australia. He was found whimpering in his mother’s pouch after she was struck by a car on the Oxley Highway two weeks ago. He’s a very quiet little fella, but he’s doing OK, hospital supervisor Cheyne Flanagan said. He just clings to a little sheepskin roll that mimics his mummy.”

Thanks for the Pep Talk, Dad.

Son, make the most out of every moment of your life. One day, you will wake up and realise you’re not 90 anymore.
