South America | Kinkajous spend most of their lives in the trees. These agile climbers have fully prehensile tails, which means it can act as an extra hand while they’re in the trees. The only thing their tails can’t do is grab food. This tree-dweller can rotate its feet and ankles a full 180 degrees; with this unique ability they can run completely backward! . . . . . . . #animalsofinstagram #animalplanet #animaloftheday #wild #wildlife #outdoors #animals #wildanimals #conservation #nature #animallovers #instanature #wildgeography #wildlifeonearth #southamerica #kinkajou
