Pua's a tamandua, a medium sized anteater. The Giants are what most people think of as anteaters. Of course then there's some people like my mom. When I first told her I was getting a anteater she asked, "What about the armor?" :-D They naturaly range all over south america. I beleive at one time Tamandua mexicana used to come as far noth as Los Angeles. Of course if you go way back fossilized Tamanduas have been found in the UK, eh, but I'm getting kinda off track.

I live in Oregon. Laws about what you can have vary by state, county and city laws. So you really need to make sure you check when getting something different, as an example even gerbils are illegal in CA.

They are really hard to get though and require a special diet, well everything does but it's a major thing with anteaters. They are considered delicate and mine's really picky. But she's so amazingly sweet :-)

I'll be getting her a mate in the future in hopes of a baby anteater but I need to move first so there's more room so a year absolute minimum :-(
