oh I just get to win

oh what is that thing up there?

I really don't know! I have to ask the zoo

I am thinking pac and others who say kinkajou are right

the paws are the same....the hairdo is quite different, but I think shovelgrrrrl said they are varied in color

freaky thing isn't it?

Would you go for a Silver-Gray Brushtail Possum?

I believe it is the possum family, which includes sugar gliders.

I still say Sugar Glider, not kinkaju. Although kinkaju is more fun to say. -B

Okay, so I asked the people at the Zoo (they're not one of my departments, but they'd like to be). They told me that some moron (their words) photo-shopped the face of a possum onto some unnamed Australian marsupial (possibly a sugar glider, but I think they were just saying that to make me happy). So the answer is ~ This is not a real animal and does not exist in nature. Which would explain why neither Tom nor I could find one just like it. Just out of curiosity, where did you get the picture? -B
