Mr. Pedro (anteater)
I arrive the weekend and can not miss a well-deserved break, in a rural area away from the technology for a moment and enjoy the open air of mother nature where I met Mr. Peter and is nothing more than a domestic anthill bear. Can you believe it? Well, yes, domestic! fantastic .
Is a very friendly bear its owners love it very much is just a very young bear and measures 45 cm long can become bigger and even reach almost two meters.
He likes to sleep a lot and caress the pansa. Has a very good sense of smell. I do not take photos with him because despite being a very friendly animal it costs a lot to trust the strangers and I did not want to risk .. but I love to know it is very cute what nature can offer us !

It feeds on termites and ants, something that is possible thanks to its strong nails and the structure of its tongue.
With the nails the anteater is able to penetrate the horrors and termites, to later catch the insects thanks to its long tongue and the viscosity that it presents
