The Coati
Hey everyone, im going to tell you a history about this animal and how became my favorite:
When i was 10 years old i travel with my mom to brazil for the first time in my life, and i met this little guy. I was fascinated at the time because he was so social with the people around him, tryng to steal food from the backpacks and some stuff like that.
Later some guards told us we cant give him food because its bad for his diet and can attract some predators, so our group have to let him go and dont interact with other ones. I was very sad at the moment but when i grow up, i understood the situation, althoug that dit not stop making me feel bad because its not his fault to be excluded, and like other animals, we put the them in a cage or ignore them their entire life.
I hope in the future we will change our way of relating to all species of this world, im not talking about tame them for our convenience like we did with the wolf for example, but risking ourselves to adapt to other species, and i think the coati may be one of the many species that can cause this change in us.
