I found these very challenging to photograph, due in no small part to their speed of movement through the enclosure. Also the harsh sunlight meant that it's not quite as detailed a shot as I would've liked. Great to see them though.

This shot was taken in the following enclosure, which I understand the tayra have been using for a couple of months now:

Nice sequence of photos. Mustelids are always a challenge to photograph; they are binary creatures either motionless and invisible or active in top gear and you had difficult light too.

Thanks Alan - I thought it was worth posting a few images, as they show some different behavioural aspects. I agree about the 'binary' nature of mustelids too -- I know people who tend to drive their cars the same way!
