Avo The Anteater

Our Tamandua Anteater is a native from Mexico, central and South America, and as an omnivore, he loves eating ants and termites.  He’s partial to avocado and banana too! With his 40cm long worm-like tongue, he has no trouble devouring his food!

Did You Know?

Their extra-long tongue helps him get into small spaces to secure their food. It’s also extra sticky, ensuring food stays there.  They are able to flick their tongues around 150 times per minute!
