In the Paraguayan Chaco, Norbert, a Mennonite farmer, had a young, hand reared giant anteater at his ranch, and took us to meet it. It ate meat from my hand with its long, sticky tongue! Their eyesight is poor, but sense of smell is keen. We had seen a huge wild one earlier in the day in the wilderness.

A 3800m aux hautes Himalayas. These birds are becoming rare as their prey is contaminated with poisons from agriculture. I did not crop the photo.....the bird was on the roadside and I walked close to it.
