Predators

The mammals I have see so far are the tamandua which is an anteater that feeds on ants and termites.  The head, legs, and tail are grey, but the body is black which makes it look like it is wearing a vest.  I have also seen several agouti which is a large rodent maybe around 15 pounds with a big round belly, short ears and no tail.  And I saw a brocket deer for just a second before it got scared and ran away.  I haven't seen any big cats  like the ocelot and margay because they go out only at night.
