The Task of the Armadillo (4Mb) and Stormy Monday (3Mb)
Armadillos are semi-nocturnal and like shade. We saw quite a few on this overcast day.
Both the following were taken at Brazos Bend State park in Texas Columbus Day 2005.

The anteater, the sloth, and the white capuchin monkey immediately below were taken in Panama in February 2005.
Diner (4Mb, .mov) and Tamandua, the Sequel (2Mb, .mov)
This anteater was photographed at Fort San Lorenzo in Panama the last week of February 2005.
I knew what it was soon as I saw it because it was in my Belize book. In Belize
(the book says--we did not see it in that country) it is known as an "ant bear". The animal can be active day or night.

Sleuth (3.7Mb) & Monkey Business (2.29Mb).
Sleuth is an unusually active 3-toed sloth near Achiote Road; Our guide Michael Castro recognized the White Capuchin Monkey's call. This video captures the sound.
so we waited a couple of minutes until a troop of about 20 leaped across Pipeline Road in Panama.
