Every morning at breakfast these guys have figured out where to go for food. They are called Pizotes or Coati. They are like raccoons. They hang out on the side of the kitchen at the hotel's restaurant.
One of the waiters told me to give them some fruit.
I wanted to get one to eat out of my hand but I heard one waiter say to another under his breath, "They're going to bite him."
What an odd thing for them to do to you..."Yes, Jorge, yes, feed them. mwahaha!" Those little things are like anteater-raccoons. Antcoons. Racooters. Ha, yes, Racooters it is. These creatures are acceptable to me as I find them cute. They better keep up the cute too...or else.
That's horrible! He was just going to let them bite you and then laugh about it later with his waiter friend. Of course I might do that kind of thing too .... jk *smirk*
Ack! Have you ever seen a wild raccoon up close? Those things will rip your face off if you give them half a reason. I'm so happy you decided not to feed them from your hand.
Thanks for sharing your Life Adventures with us, I usually like to check up on u, Its like...what is Jorge up to. You are the coolest of them all!! I met you once and u were very nice to everyone but Desmond the one with the awful accent was very rude, I took only 2 pictures of him and he said "don't u think you have enough pictures of me?"(with his silly accent) He's not even that popular on LOST!! I don't even know his real name. Who cares!! Whew!! Sorry for sharing this with u but I had to get it off my chest!! I feel much better now...hehehe. (good therapy);D
Coati! I couldn't remember what those little critters were called but I remember seeing them when I was in Guatemala a few years back. They were the most domesticated of the jungle animals we ran into. All about the human scraps. Cute little buggers too.
How adorable! Look at those enormous tails!

They are very funny!
ReplyDeletePerhaps, they are the friends with rooster. Maybe They ask to you autographs but you think that they want to eat.

Cool! They look friendly enough, but I'm glad you didn't feed them from your hand. Yikes!
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of the time we had a sociable little raccoon visit our deck for an evening meal in the cabin we were staying at in the Smokies.
Did they have to fight over it? It looks like they're all about to pounce!
ReplyDeleteHuh.. It's odd to think things I've only seen in a zoo are actually common pests somewhere.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if they keep Possums in zoos in other places.
Coatimundi! I loved these little guys when I was there. SO COOL!

ReplyDeletecuuuuuuuuuute!
ReplyDeleteJorge,
ReplyDeleteRacoons? They look like Possums!
waiters are notorious for wishing pain and agony on the patrons.
ReplyDeleteThey are very cute. I love your Costa Rica!
ReplyDeletethat is SO cool and god thing you tossed it!
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine had a coati as a pet. He had a habitat for it, because it was vicious. Good thing you didnt feed it from your hand.
ReplyDeleteI love you blog! These look like a cross between a monkey and a racoon. Super cute!
ReplyDeleteAwwww, so cute! I'd love to do that...

ReplyDeleteWho's that speaking spanish in the background? She speaks wonderfully. I love her accent.
ReplyDeleteSo you just feed random animals from your hand? Brave man.

ReplyDeleteWith all those red flowers in the foreground, I'm suspicious that they might have been the smoke monster.
ReplyDeleteThe waiters were going to let the animals just bite you?!?! Good thing you listened to them...that coulda been painful!
