The name “tamandua” means “catcher of ants” in the Tupí language of eastern Brazil. Unlike the Giant Anteater which is mainly found on the forest floor the tamandua is commonly found high in the canopy. In fact its long claws make it very difficult to walk on flat ground for long distances. #tamandua #anteater #savetherainforest #tahuayolodge #wildlifephotography #amazoniaexpeditions 📍Amazonia Expeditions Tahuayo Lodge 📷 Amazonia Guide @claudiodessanchez | Amazonia Expeditions

In the wild, tamanduas feed on termites, ants, and occasionally fruit, playing an important role in controlling insect populations and maintaining healthy forests. Protecting roads and habitats is essential to keeping tamanduas and other wildlife s

Noms with Santiago the tamandua pup! 😋 A tamandua’s long, sticky tongue is the perfect bug catcher and can reach lengths of nearly 16 inches long! This allows them to scour the narrow tunnels of termite mounds and ant colonies. All anteaters, including tamanduas, belong to the suborder Vermilingua, which means “worm-tongue.” 🪱 📹 Keeper Lindsey | Nashville Zoo
