She had worms so bad the vet said it was remarkable, she had anteater pox, mites, fleas, some wounds.<BR/><BR/>They are treated as nuisance animals there. With human encroachment they wander into human homes, dig through trash and get in fights with aggressive domestics like dogs, plus are killed on roads and hunted for other reasons.<BR/><BR/>I'll be getting her a mate when I can to help preserve future generations.Tamandua Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10542453483618263448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18422671.post-325719236231084712007-02-10T18:41:00.000-08:002007-02-10T18:41:00.000-08:00I followed the picture link to the flickr site and...I followed the picture link to the flickr site and saw some of Pua's early pictures. I wanted to post there but I don't have an account<BR/><BR/>You mentioned that she was sick when you first got her; that she had ear mites and such. Why was she sick? Was it stress or something else.c.j.h.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15181074831592062199noreply@blogger.com
