Exotic Pets – Kinkajou – as part of the expert series by GeoBeats.
This is a kinkajou. Kinkajous come from South America. They are a member of the raccoon family. They are very loving, they are very active. They are very jumpy, and they like to play and run around a lot. And they are herboreal, and they have a prehensile tail that helps them climb. They eat fruits and vegetables in the wild, a little bit of meat. Every once in a while, they might catch a bug. They like bananas, pears, apples, and we feed them a thing called monkey biscuits. This is a baby. They get about twice as big as this.
And in captivity, they make very very very good pets. They are very loving, and they are very playful. It is usually better to have them fixed as adults, if you are not planning on breeding them. This keeps them even more loving and more calm. You need to check your regulations where you live, and make sure that you do not need a permit, or if these are allowed. This is probably, everything good about a monkey without any of the bad things about a monkey. And they like to be played with, loved, cuddled. And then when you are done with them, you put them back in their very big cage, and they go to sleep. And they actually like that too. It is like having a big live teddy bear in your house. I like these a lot, and they are very fun.

I just got a kinkajou as a HUGE suprise for Christmas and I am 15. She is handicapped and has only 3 legs …. but you cant tell, my parents are Veternarians, and my mom thought that it would be best for her if we took her out of everyone else. She is VERY VERY curious at only 4 months old, I love her to death already, any name ideas??

@geobeats I would LOVE to have a Kinkajou as a companion. I have a thing or exotic animals and after about 5 years of research I have found that this pet would fit perfectly with my lifestyle and schedule. Although it will be costly, I will start saving in the next year to get one plus the housing and food. I also read that they are pretty quiet and low in odor, which is a GREAT selling point with my wife.lol
