Just wanted to show you guys this tiny baby friend my dad found on the sink in our bathroom :)))

I love snails a lot!!! And this little lad just made my day!!

Look at them, aren't they so cute??

They are my favourite animal so I wanted to share a little bit about them!

They are a species of anteaters that live in South America and the island of Trinidad!!

They love to climb trees, therefore they are arboreals. They can be pretty awkward when they are walking on the ground because of their long claws, that are made for climbing. They are also nocturnal, but they also can be active sometimes during the daytime!! Their vision is really poor but they have a great sense of smell and hearing!!

They are also typically solitary animals. Their body length go between 13 to 35 inches (without their tails), and their tails go between 12 to 26 inches. Adults can weigh from 3.3 to 18.5 lbs.

As any other anteaters, they love to eat ants, and termites, but occasionally they also eat honey, bees and fruit!!

They are really cute and fun little creatures, I love them so much!!! ‼️💕

The sun bear it's native to the tropical forest in the southeast Asia! And their unique, although kinda scary, morphology suggests that they are actually made for climbing! They make sleeping plataforms high in trees made out of branches and leaves.

They are also quite small, in fact they are the smallest bears out there! They are about 4 to 5 feet tall and go from 6o to 150 pounds (the males are slightly larger than the females).

Sadly, according to the IUCN red list status, they are vulnerable and their current population it's actually decreasing, this is because their habitats are being lost rapidly due to poachers hunt them mercilessly for body parts and fur, and some farmers kill them on site because they often eat crops such as oil palm, coconuts, and bananas. Adult females are also frequently killed so their cubs can be taken and raised as pets. That's why, no matter if they aren't actually photogenic (yes, they look like a human in a bear suit), we need to take a time to appreciate this cool looking bears!!
