Description | Description:Raccoons are bear-like mammals that were once exclusively found in North America but now live in Japan and Europe as well.

Their front paws are so dexterous that they can turn door knobs, untie knots, and open jars. | Description:Squirrel monkeys have distinctive bright yellow legs and tails of up to 16 inches in length. These long tails provide good balance for tree climbers. These are extremely social monkeys that noisily move about trees in large troops of as many as 500. |
