Ring-tailed Coati - 2017

I find it interesting how much Paignton has changed since my visit 5 years ago - no elephant anymore, takin no longer in the quarry, Bruce no longer in the yard, and that also applies here - as the zoo no longer keeps ring-tailed coati - and as far as I can tell, it seems that the UK is facing..
..something of a coati regulation - in that zoos keeping coati [much of these smaller zoos] are not allowed to breed them. Whether the coati is truly an established invasive species in the UK is perhaps debatable, though I will admit they are rather pretty animals.. good thing they still breed on the continent!
