Wild animals

The animal known as the coati is scientifically known as the coati (coatimundi or coat). This name comes from the Tupian Indian words coati, meaning "belt," and mun, meaning "nose." This member of the raccoon family is so named because of its flexible, trunk-like nose. Inside, there are sensory receptors responsible for detecting odors. A large number of muscles makes this "extension" very flexible, as coatis use it to explore natural depressions in search of food.All about the coati

The squirrel is a charming, agile little animal. The life of these little forest dwellers is very diverse. Their tenacious claws help them grasp branches, and their superb agility allows them to leap from tree to tree. Squirrels not only climb trees and gather food for the winter, but also have many adventures.

Fauna of the taiga forest

Ancient coniferous forests stretch along the edge of the harsh tundra. Cedars, firs, pines, and spruces provide food and shelter for many animals. The short summer is the season when herbivores try to gorge themselves on berries and grass, while predators stalk lost or weakened animals to accumulate fat reserves before the long winter.
