South American coati

The South American coati, also known as the ring-tailed coati, is a coati species and a member of the raccoon family, found in the tropical and subtropical parts of South America. An adult generally weighs from 2–7.2 kg and is 85–113 cm long, with half of that being its tail. Its color is highly variable and the rings on the tail may be only somewhat visible, but its most distinguishing characteristic is that it lacks the largely white snout of its northern relative, the white-nosed coati.
