  - sharp nails and a voluntary nail trim is an easily-trained behavior
  - thick , black fur , a long , muscular tail , and long , stiff , white whiskers

  - skulls
  - vacuoles
  - vertebrate feet
* live in rainforest canopies.
* mark their territory with scent.
* mostly live alone but can easily live with their parents.
* spend most of their lives high in the trees of the rainforest.
* swim well enough to catch fish.
* travel on all fours, and their legs are short like raccoons' legs.
* walk flat-footed, like bears and people.
+ Binturong, Description: Feliformia
  * Binturongs have thick, black fur, a long, muscular tail, and long, stiff, white whiskers. Like other civets, the binturongs use scent marks to communicate with other binturongs. In captivity, binturongs live for about 30 years
  - Diet
  * Binturongs eat fruit and small animals that they find using their sense of smell to find food. They hunt for food at night - they are nocturnal

Palm civet
* All palm civets are more active when food is in ample supply and when fewer predators are out.
* Most palm civets climb fruit trees
  - eat seeds
* Most palm civets have dark eyes
  - large dark eyes
  - teeth
  - live in habitats
* Some palm civets eat fruit
  - live up to years
* become active only after dark and retreat to rest sites just before dawn.
* stake out territories which often overlap during times of adequate food supply.

Coati
* eat prey.
* includes brains
  - cells
  - chests
  - corpi
  - cytoplasm
  - nuclei
  - piluses
  - plasma membranes
  - sections
  - skulls
  - sterna
  - vertebrate feet
* live in packs in the forests of South and Central America.
* spend considerable time on the ground, but they climb trees as easily as a squirrel.

* differ greatly in terms of their basic coloring.
* get their water by licking it from leaves and tree hollows.
  - highly unusual teeth
  - wide heads with small ears and large eyes
* includes brains
