White-Nosed Coatimundis
Tumblr media
Don't fall prey to the same error I did, it is pronounced "koh-ah-tee-muhn-dees"
Scientifically known as Nasua narica, AKA antoon, gato solo, pizote, and tejón.
Tumblr media
You may or may not have noticed the rather pronounced sniffer on this lad, the folks behind its taxonomy sure did, Nasua translates to 'nose' and narica translates to nostril, I leave this information for you to do with as you wish.

This caniformic cutie is known to help pollinate balsa trees, in exchange it gets precious nectar, though, most of its food comes from insects, with the occasional land crab, or small vertebrate.
Tumblr media
Despite being part of the same family as raccoons (Procyonidae) it is actually diurnal. It spends most of its time on the ground, but does climb trees, something its large front claws, and tail, make it adapt at.
Tumblr media
It is thankfully considered least concern by the IUCN, its range is large (comprising some of North, Central, and South America) and its population has been growing since the sixties, after it took a hit, it even seems to have gotten a stable population in Florida, after some escaped captivity, though, the exact time it started is unknown.
Some people keep them as pets, I frankly detest that, but I concede, if I could cuddle one of these fluff-babies without harming either of us, I would.

The city of Midton was overrun with enormous man-eating slugs, and the superhero known as Coatimundi was staring anxiously at her phone.
“Was this your plan?” Black Knight asked, waving an armored hand at her.
“No!” she shot back, defensive. Small fluffy ears were pinned back to her hair in annoyance, her tail lashing. “This is the pre-plan. I’m setting a plan for a plan into motion.”
“We should regroup at the Plaza,” said Helen of Troy, sheathing her sword.
“Go ahead without me,” Coatimundi said, dragging her thumb over the screen to manually refresh.
“That’s not how regrouping works,” Black Knight pointed out. “If you’re trying to find someone else who had this problem, don’t bother—I already looked and it’s just one guy who marked his thread as resolved without posting what he did.”

South American coati! Related to raccoons, and similarly omnivorous - their diet consists mainly fruit, invertebrates, small animals, and bird eggs.
[ID: an illustration of a coati facing to the left, walking with its long, striped tail held upright. It is on a textured blue background with banana flowers, leaves, and fruit. End.

I can't help but feel that Ch.6 of Ghost is like, a power fantasy for characters who get retconned. Oh ho ho Mr. Writer, you retcon my girlfriend? You write the love of my life out of my life? Not so! I find you and I stab you and stab you and stab you!
ghost getting vengeance for every character who was actually enjoying being in the silly fun book for girls and doesn't want to go back to being grounded in gritty realism for edgelords
