Waking up and "yawning" shows the true length of their tongue:




The owner says: "Tamanduas are very smart. They know how to open the fridge, open the doors..."









"The dogs are scared of their long tails; and some tamanduas may use their long claws on almost anything, including your furniture. They like to tear things up when given the chance like coconuts and logs".




To avoid puncturing their palms with their sharp claws, they walk on the outsides of their hands. They can wave their arms at you, and almost say "hello" -




Do your homework and be prepared to put with many surprises, if you consider an anteater as a pet. First of all, they don't come cheap (up to $4,500) - and they need a special diet (unless you have an endless supply of ants, but even then, they need a supplement) Tamanduas are very loving, but just like cats, they tend to "let you" love them.




However, when they do hug you, it's impossibly cute:






Some clothes seem to be a perfect fit for tamandua:






Traveling in a car does not seem to faze them, only pique their curiosity:






And then, there is love and romance:








Soon this anteater couple will star in the upcoming "Dr. Dolittle 4" movie. That is if they will get from under their cozy blankets in the morning:



They seem to be well aware of their awesomeness:
"OK, ok, no applause is needed" -
