coati (230 words)
Coatis live in groups of 30 or more, consisting of females and young; males live apart from the pack, and may only join a group for a short time during the mating season.
Coatis are carnivorous mammals found in the forests of South and Central America where they forage for insects, fruit, and small mammals.
A coati is a good climber and has long claws, a long tail, a good sense of smell, and a long, flexible piglike snout used for digging.
Coatimundi, general information, care and rearing.... (1801 words)
The pregnant coati female should be given her own facility with and individual house of minimal size 2ft by 2ft by 1.5ft high, The house should be dry and warm.
Due to this rigorous schedule which is critical to the health of the coati we do not deliver the coatis to their new families until they are at least 8 to 12 weeks of age.
Our coatis are placed in their cages to go to sleep around 9:00 to 10:00pm and will generally sleep through the nite until around 6:00am at which we let them out to play with us for a time.
