🐾Kinkajou
킨카주(kinkajou, Potos flavus)는 올링고와 코아티, 라쿤 그리고 알락꼬리고양이와 카코미슬고양이 등을 포함하고 있는 아메리카너구리과에 속하는 열대우림 포유류의 일종이다. 킨카주속(Potos)의 유일종이다. 킨카주는 페럿 또는 원숭이로 착각할 수도 있지만, 전혀 관련이 없다. 중앙아메리카와 남아메리카의 토착종으로 주로 과식성, 수상성 생활을 하는 포유류이다. 사람들 눈에 잘 띄지 않지만, 그 이유는 야행성 동물이기 때문으로 멸종위기종은 아니다. 그러나 애완용 동물용 또는 지갑이나 말 안장을 만들기 위한 모피를 얻기 위해 사냥된다.
