I'm pretty sure i've seen the photo you cropped it from Jana... Excellent species and few and far between in European Zoo's

Eira Barbara?

If i'm correct then someone else post a pic

 

[Jana]

You are right, jwer, it is a female tayra (Eira barbara).

Good one Jana.
Even though I got the last one wrong, here's another:

That one could be any number of animals...but what about a solenodon?

Well done guys.
Has anyone ever seen one? I haven't unfortunately.
Last one outside Cuba was in Fankfurt in the 70/80s.

Your turn jwer

First of all, i don't feel like messing with photo's, and second of all i wasn't the first one with the right answer

I saw one in Frankfurt in 1973 - I'd have to turn to my old International Zoo Yearbooks to check the species. It was a fascinating creature: very primitive looking and it sort of waddled with its back legs far apart.

I'll have to find something odd from my photo collection to test you all.

@pygathrix: my guessing of the solenodon redeems me after the malayan tapir guess of your original photo! But I have never seen one...
