Cute mammals



Okay, so let's talk about non-human mammals. I don't really know anything about them, but I imagine that y'all are expecting pictures of some. So I asked around and found a couple photos. The monkeys (like this little white-faced monkey) are all over the place, the other most common type are the howler monkeys who wake you up in the morning but are less likely to be seen. They are not so cute at 5 am. Also, one of our groups did a project where they were interviewing locals for a sociological study and went to a local vet and took the photo of the jaguar. Apparently it's a big problem here (as it is in the States) that people get big cats as pets when they are little and then the cats have to be rescued when they get to be too much for their owners, that's this guy's story. Everyone wanted to touch his big paws, but were able to hold themselves back so as not to disturb him further.
