Central American Woolly oppossum (Caluromys derbyanus)

One tail-less individual but incredibly interesting to photograph in the wild. Specially when you know that there aren?t any in captivity.

ZIMS has registered 107 individuals of the Caluromys genus since the first one in 1881 until the only one registered alive but being Caluromys philander. Cali zoo has had some individuals in the past, but the last one died circa. 2002

This is one of the best pictures I could take because it wasn?t easy to find a good angle being 8 meters below or so.
