Anteater using termite feeding mound

Anteater using termite feeding mound

I take it the feeding mound butts up to a viewing window? What a great idea!

Yep, the mound is on the fence line, with holes on the anteater side and a viewing window on the public side. Unfortunately a lot of reflections, hence why the pic is nothing special, but I felt it worth posting as a special interest pic

I think the photo illustrates the idea very well; definitely worth posting.

Nice work. You did very well to be in the right place at the right time - and to get a decent photo in difficult circumstances.

Thanks guys - I was amazed enough as it was when I saw one of the anteaters walk out, and then to see it approach this and actually start using it was a real treat.

Still missed the field voles in this enclosure though, I keep looking out but to no joy [and infact, that was the main reason I kept going to the paddock]
