Living with Anteaters

Snuggle with me and keep me warm
Sleepy hugs

Anteater snuggle time

time to sleep

Tamandua Pre-estrus fluid
Because your tamandua suddenly spotting blood can be frightening here's some photos of Pua's monthly(mostly) spotting. Average cycle is 45 days based on certain studies but Pua has always been 28-30 days most times but she is also often irregular.

For more info microscopic photos of tamandua anteater pre-estrus fluid
You can see blood cells in this though some look a little damaged(Echinocytes) since it was drying out and I used glass slides which also causes this. She wanted to play not cooperate.

The stuff I looked at before but hadn't taken a photo of was just epithelial cells, what gathers there in between her monthly spotting sometimes.
Time for a hike

I'm not finding any ants

And no termites

There should be bugs all year long
I did find her a yummy caterpillar the other day

Posing on a stump

Charging through the wilderness

Pua is agile

Enjoying a log

Not such a good idea
I had fun untangling the leash from that.

I need to explore

They need better drainage

Time for the trail

Checking out a hole

Winter walk with Pua tamandua

She had fun running all over and exploring.

Anything good down there?

I'm queen of the woods!
